Laura Basuki Explores 3 Characters At The Same Time In The Film Heartbreak

JAKARTA - Laura Basuki became the main character in Angga Sasongko's latest film, Heartbreak. Not one, but there are three characters that he will play in the novel adaptation film by Ika Natassa of the same name.

Regarding the role, Laura Basuki admitted that she did not have a special way to explore the three characters. But he always has his own way of getting into his character.

"It's always interesting to work on a film from the adaptation of the novel. When I read the novel, I have two perspectives that watch Ava and the second, include myself in the novel," said Laura Basuki at a press conference on Friday, July 26.

"When working on a film I have a music playlist and I have luck when Mas Angga shares playlists for certain scenes and makes it easier for me to read my thoughts and mood when working on this project," he said.

In a day you can change three characters at once. Most of them are sequential, for example this week to Ava, this week doing Raisa, then this week it becomes Maya. But there are a few days we are limited in time and location, so we can change our personality several times," Laura explained again.

Laura revealed that she had heard of this project for a long time, long before the shooting started. He had imagined how he could work with Angga Sasongko, which turned out to be realized in this film.

"Actually, when this film was about to be made and I had not been invited, I heard about this project. I feel definitely happy because the character is playing. When I called, "Wow, I'm dead!" said Laura Basuki.

"On the one hand, I was happy to direct you, bro, before I only heard other people's reviews, it turned out to be a fun experience that I proved myself. I saw Mas Angga orcretating everyone, but the people were cheerful, like to joke," he said.

"There is no challenge. Challenging it if there are actors who can't act. The three of them (Laura, Chicco Jerikho, Reza Rahadian) even made me one of the luckyest directors in Indonesia because of their cooperation with these actors. We only met 4 times. We agree, I already know their quality," said Angga Sasongko.

The film Heartbreaktal tells the story of Ava Alessandra (Laura Basuki), a famous actress who is in a dilemma in the midst of her relationship with fellow actor, Reza Malik (Reza Rahadian). Her life changed after she became acquainted with Raga (Chicco Jerikho).

The Heartbreak film can be seen in Indonesian cinemas starting August 1, 2024.
