Born in Cairo
His journey started from the school's theatre then the university's theatre until he won international festival awards. Mahmoud attended the systems and information faculty but that never ceased him to pursue his dream. He just found another path that led to his dream as he joined the university's theater with the university's troupe and the director Mohammad Al Khayyam. He then joined several theater troupes, one of them is the "liberty troupe" with the director Mohammad Abed Al Majid and the late artist Foad Al Mohandes. He became the primary responsible of his university's theater. After graduation, he started a self-learning journey in the field of writing and filmmaking and he sought to study cinema science through liberal studies in acting, filmmaking, and psychodrama, in Egypt and abroad with the help of director Ahmad Maher. He worked with directors like Ahmad Maher, Khaled Al Hajar, Yasser Zayed, Houssam Abed El Rahman, and Dr. Mohammad Abed El Hassan.
Thanks to his artistic excellence, he was chosen as the director of the Arab Open University where he carried out several projects on the university's theater and Al-nada theater. He completed many projects in Egypt until he was offered a television interview in Dubai and then moved there. Because of the positive feedback he got after the interview, he decided to settle in that hospitable country. His career prospered as he worked, studied, and attended workshops and training courses related to color science, architecture, cinematography, and art criticism. Afterwards, he carried out his first filmmaking project, an experimental film under the title of "Abdel Wadoud", which was screened at several international film festivals, which was an important milestone of his career. He then directed the short narrative film "A Brunette on the Road" and the film "My Homeland" which were shot in Dubai.
His best known works include "Magida" and "Casting Film Youssef Shaheen". They won many awards in several countries such as America, Austria, Japan, France, India, Italy and other countries. Magida is produced by Samir El-Nil, written and directed by Mahmoud Mahmoud, and Tamer Radwan as director of photography, and starring a large group of actors from different Arab countries.
"Casting Film Youssef Chahine" won many awards in various international festivals as well, such as France, Italy, India, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, the Emirates, Europe, Malaysia and Hungary, and is still proving to be a huge success. It is produced by Weeknd Art Production company owned by the producer Sameh Helmy. Tamer Radwan was the director of photography. The star Nabila Obaid, the director Khaled Al-Hajar, Dr. Mohamed Abdel-Mohsen, the artist Hussein Nakhla, the artist Amal Al-Qarmazi, and many young people participated in the voice-over performance in front of and behind the camera.
He is currently working on a film entitled "Gharam", written by Nasser Abdel Rahman, starring Amr Abdel Galil, and on another film with the producer Sameh Helmy, written by Dr. Sherif Adel. He is also working on the film Mosha, written and directed by him, and he has other projects in progress.
His works are obviously influenced by philosophy, psychodrama, mysticism, modernism, letters literature, Japanese literature, and the human soul and truth that are part of nature, fine arts, and aesthetics. He also believes that the truth and the soul of a human are related to cinema and he always educates himself on such topics. This huge interest is part of his soul and identity and is significantly reflected in his works.
On the behalf of Dubai, he carried out many projects that were acclaimed in more than 100 countries and he won as well many international awards. He received the UAE golden visa and is now a jury member in several international filmmaking festivals as a filmmaker in Europe and India.
