Thuong Tin wants to invite Aly Dung 'Saigon Special Forces' to act in a movie he directs

Actor Thuong Tin recently reunited with Aly Dung, his co-star in the film "Saigon Commando," where he played a bodyguard for Colonel Song , after more than 30 years of separation. This meeting was facilitated by musician To Hieu.

Aly Dũng is suffering from leukemia, making life very difficult for him. Despite also suffering from multiple illnesses and having difficulty getting around, Thương Tín still wanted to visit and provide some support to his colleague.

Speaking to VTC News, musician Tô Hiếu said that Thương Tín was eager to visit Aly Dũng after hearing about his leukemia diagnosis. Previously, the two worked together at the Cửu Long Giang theater troupe and then the Kim Cương theater troupe. Later, they met again on the set of the film "Saigon Special Forces."

After 30 years of not seeing each other, Aly Dung still recognized his colleague as Thuong Tin stepped out of the car; Thuong Tin, however, seemed quite surprised. He donated 1 million dong from his earnings from singing to support Aly Dung.

Composer Tô Hiếu shared: "In the near future, Thương Tín and I want to invite Dũng to our house to look for a role in a film directed by Tín. Dũng is frail now, but he can still move around better than Thương Tín. When he heard about the opportunity to act in a film, he brightened up considerably."

"Currently, Mr. Dung is ill and lives alone. Thuong Tin said he wants to help Mr. Dung find shows to perform in. I'm still thinking about how to help both of them get shows. Maybe if the audience invites Thuong Tin to a show, we'll let Mr. Dung join us, whatever money we can get is fine."

Composer Tô Hiếu was the one who facilitated the meeting between the two artists.

Aly Dũng, whose real name is Huỳnh Dũng, has both Vietnamese and Arab ancestry. Born in 1950, the actor has played over 100 roles, mostly supporting roles with limited screen time. Therefore, he is also known as an artist specializing in supporting roles on Vietnamese television.

He once played the role of Colonel Song's bodyguard in the film Saigon Commando . This is also his most memorable role to date. Despite persistently pursuing his profession, his life remained difficult and impoverished.

The actor was once married and had children, but his wife and children left him decades ago.
