(Shadia) and they set out to create work for themselves that was
worthy of their talents. Time passed and this was not achieved. Wahid
decided to play a trick to make himself into a famous person; he
claimed he had killed his wife. His trick succeeded and he acquired
great fame. A lady's body was found; the police thought it was his
wife's body and that he was really the murderer. Wahid said his wife
had not been killed and that she was alive somewhere. His wife had
been in an automobile accident which caused memory loss. Wahid was
sentenced to death. The lawyer tried to restore the wife's memory
quickly to save Wahid from the death penalty; he succeeded in doing
this at the last moment and Wahid was accordingly released. His fame
began with that; then there was a quick change in his theater
contracts and the trick enabled him to achieve the kind of renown he
had never imagined.
