Saudi screen star Elham Ali celebrates her birthday today, August 31. She shared a special photoshoot for the occasion with her followers on Instagram, as she continues to enjoy a remarkable phase in her career and strengthen her position as one of the leading stars of Saudi and Gulf drama.
Elham Ali does not view her birthday as merely an occasion for celebration. Rather, she sees it as a personal milestone that marks a new beginning. To her, it represents “a new challenge, new maturity, and a new phase,” reflecting her belief that the passing years offer an opportunity for growth and for embracing different experiences on both personal and professional levels. Despite the spotlight surrounding her, Elham prefers to celebrate the occasion without extravagance, in a simple family setting with her loved ones and those closest to her, particularly her husband, actor Khaled Saqr. She believes that being surrounded by the people she loves is the most beautiful way to mark her birthday.
Elham also reveals that she shares a special bond with her audience. She considers handwritten messages among the gifts that touch her most deeply. She does not merely read them; she also makes sure to keep them in a special cabinet, preserving them as reminders of her fans’ feelings and of different stages in her artistic journey. Elham Ali’s birthday holds an added significance because August 31 also marks the birthday of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. Elham has previously expressed her happiness over this coincidence and sent him a special birthday greeting, wishing him continued health, success, and prosperity.
This year, Elham Ali’s birthday coincides with her continued artistic success and strong presence on screen, particularly following her acclaimed performances during the 2026 Ramadan drama season in the series Ars Al-Jinn and Shari’ Al-Asha 2. She portrayed different characters that demonstrated her ability to move between roles and present them in diverse ways, further cementing her position among the leading female names in Gulf drama.
Elham’s achievements do not end there, as her audience is eagerly awaiting the upcoming premiere of the third season of the series Sondos, in which she plays a role that has attracted considerable interest from viewers.
