JAKARTA - Despite acting since 2015 and having starred in several big screen films, Erika Carlina in the public eye is still often known as a celebrity.

Image as a strong celebrity attached to him was admitted to having made him get bad treatment while filming. He admitted that he often did not respond when asking questions and felt he was not considered an actor.

"Once, it means not to be considered like that. It's just not taken care, even now I have forgotten," said Erika Carlina when met at Grand Indonesia, Central Jakarta on Thursday, April 13.

Erika admitted that there is a separate distance between the image of an actor and a celebrity. He realized that those who started acting careers because of their popularity on social media are often underestimated.

However, the 26-year-old girl has been more relaxed in responding to these prejudices. Now, Erika has no problem with the public's designation for herself. He also felt there was no need to provide further explanation.

"In the film world, what does a celebrity play a movie look like, you're not an actor. It's just to explain to you, 'oh, I actually played a movie', but what to do,'said Erika.

"It's okay if I want to be called a host, I want to be called a singer, I want to say anything, it's okay. My goal here is to make a work and make money. To Jakarta, I just want to touch people," he continued.

Talking about acting, Erika herself admitted that she had been interested in acting since she was still in elementary school. He is often involved in theater groups at his school. His desire to become a actor continued to grow until finally he had the opportunity to star in big screen films.

The struggle to become an actress is also not something easy. Erika, who comes from Cirebon, has done a lot to be involved in a film, even though she only gets a small role.

The struggle was quite long because I was from Cirebon, not from Jakarta. Wanting to be a person in Jakarta is really hard. I used to casting the three of them on motorbikes with my manager. One day can be from this location to another location. I really want to get a role, whatever is important can, want to be a cameo is okay, "he said.

"So I really feel it. That is, to want to be a work person, it's not easy to know in Jakarta. The competition is really difficult, especially since it seems that in the past, local people from the village wanted to hang out were very difficult," said Erika Carlina.
