Digital Phablet – An extravagant farewell for Hamo Bika’s father sparks online controversy.
The funeral of the father of Egyptian festival singer Hamo Bika has become a trending topic on social media after photos and videos from the event went viral online.
Many viewers were taken aback by the unconventional setup of the funeral venue. It featured a lengthy red carpet, regal-style chairs, grand chandeliers, and decorations that some commented looked more suited for a prominent celebration than a traditional funeral.
The debate grew fiercer when details about the scope of the preparations and their alleged expenses surfaced.

Yassin El-Helily, owner of El-Helily Events and the event organizer, explained that the preparations were completed within just a few hours despite the venue’s large size.
He mentioned that operations started around 6 a.m. and wrapped up by approximately 2 p.m., utilizing nearly 15 large trucks to transport all necessary equipment.
The site spanned roughly 1,400 square meters, including 800 royal chairs and nearly 600 chandeliers.
