Roohangiz Saminejad

Roohangiz Saminejad (24 June 1916 – 3 April 1997)[1] was an Iranian actress.

She was discovered by Abdolhossein Sepenta, who had almost despaired of finding an actress with the right look for the film.

Her strong Kermani accent required some changes to the script to account for it.

She only made one more film, Shirin and Farhad, also produced by Sepenta.

According to Hamid Reza Sadr, she suffered social ostracism in the conservative culture of the time for becoming an actress.
