JAKARTA - The main actor in the film "Ali Topan", actor Jefri Nichol, said that he was afraid when he had to compete acting with Lutesha who played the character Anna Karenina in the film. "I'm happy that this is the first time I've played acting with Lutesha, at first I was afraid. Intimidating her very face, but her love has appeared for a long time," said Jefri Nichol in a press conference "Ali Topan" in Jakarta, Tuesday, quoted by Antara. Jefri admitted that Ali Topan's character is different from several titles the film he's ever lived in. However, he feels that Ali Topan is similar to his character in real life. Jefri also hopes that the film "Ali Topan" can inspire the audience about the spirit of rebellion and wishing for freedom but still being responsible. "Spirit I and Ali Topan? I think everyone knows that I'm quite retail. The difference is maybe Ali Topan is more smart than me," he said.

Therefore, Anna Karenina rebelled a little to find identity and freedom in the outside world. "That's why he asked questions and really wanted to be free. He really wanted to go out to see the outside world, so it's very common to be retail," said Lutesha.
