Playing In Religious Dramas, Ummi Quary Must Brake A Lot

Comedian Ummi Quary is trusted to be able to play in a religious drama film adapted from the novel by Asma Nadia as a young widow entitled Assalamualaikum Baitullah.

Uniquely, in this film, Ummi Quary must wear a hijab and have a serious role character where it is inversely proportional to her everyday character.

Ummi also admitted that she had to hold back a lot in order to remain professional in playing the character in this latest film.

"It's quite difficult because I have to brake," said Ummi Quary at the VOI office, recently.

"Maybe in the previous films or in the next film I was given the freedom of myself, it was like there was a role but he was brought by the bacot, the centil was okay with Ummi," he continued.

"But if it's here I feel like I have to survive, I have to keep my words open, so, God, it's quite difficult, you have to make bolts in me so I don't overdo it," said Ummi.

When asked about the resemblance to the characters he played in this film, Ummi was confident that he was a friend who always wanted to make his friends happy.

"If the widow doesn't, if it looks like it, it's quite similar, because I'm quite a friend, I feel like I want to make my best friend happy, I want to make my friend laugh when there is I forget the problems," explained Ummi Quary.

"And I think if it's strong, I'm stronger than Ummi. So there's quite a difference there," he said.

Assalamualaikum Baitullah tells the story of Amira (Michelle Ziudith) living in the shadow of injury and trauma. After being cheated on by her husband, Pram (Miqdad Addausy), and experiencing a miscarriage, Amira began to doubt love, justice, and even fate. Her relationship with Pram was destroyed, making Amira feel that her life had lost its way.

In the midst of despair, Amira decided to go to Umrah with a group of pilgrims from Indonesia. The journey to the Holy Land turned out to be not only a spiritual journey, but also a journey to heal deep inner wounds.

There, Amira met Barra (Arbani Yasiz), a young man with wounds and stories of his own life. Meanwhile, Amel (Tissa Biani) another girl in the group kept the secret that rocked the journey of all of their hearts.

Throughout the journey in Mecca and Medina, various events made Amira question again about love, sincerity, forgiveness, and the meaning of true worship. He also slowly realized that true happiness does not always come from human love, but from acceptance and faith in God.
