Gejolak Batin Ikke Nurjanah Ahead Of Princess Semata Puppet's Wedding

JAKARTA - Senior dangdut singer, Ikke Nurjanah, is shrouded in feelings of emotion mixed ahead of her only daughter's marriage, Siti Adira Kania.

As a mother, she realizes that this is an inevitable phase of life, where she must be ready to release her child to build her own life.

"On the way, I feel that it is the time, because I'm sorry," said Ikke Nurjanah when met in the Blok M area, South Jakarta, recently.

This moment is the point where the role of parents shifts. If previously she was the main person in charge, now Ikke must provide space for her daughter to be independent and make her own decisions with her future husband.

"If yesterday it was parents, after that the children were independent, then they got married, of course in many ways he had his own rules. If yesterday it was still our rules, parents were still in charge, in the future we gave him space to be himself, determine life with her future husband," said Ikke.

The singer of the song Viewing you does not deny the inner turmoil he feels. On the one hand, there is happiness to see his daughter enter a new level, but on the other hand there is a sense of worry and fear in the face of these changes.

"I still kind of accept that my son has entered the next level, but there is a sense of fear," he said.

"How do I go through that process? But God willing, the children are ready because of their age, journey of life, their ups and downs are exciting. May Allah protect," he continued.

Ikke Nurjanah admits that she is more sensitive than her ex-husband, Aldi Bragi, in facing this moment. Even though he felt heavy, he was still grateful to be able to take his daughter to this point.

"Maybe compared to his father, I was slower. I was quieter. We just balanced it. But it was hard to let go of that moment, but we are grateful that our child got to that moment," said Ikke Lirih.

She also realized that the dynamics of her relationship with her child would change. The story, which is usually shared fully with her mother, will now be divided with her husband. However, she accepted the change gracefully.

"Yesterday, the story was still with his mother. Now maybe it's a bit divided in stories. But that's okay, at certain stages, for example we meet, we really talk," he added.
