On one occasion, Baim shared his experience when directing his own wife. He admitted that Paula was scared because she was quite hard when she was a director.

"He continues to dry, he gets hit by the blow. I'm a perfectist so it's quite scary for him," said Baim Wong in the Bintaro area, South Jakarta, Thursday, August 1.

Furthermore, Baim Wong explained the reason he collaborated with several well-known Indonesian actors such as Arya Saloka and Oka Antara.

"I want this film to be expensive. The existence of Arya Saloka and Oka Antara has merged people that this is a different horror film," he said.
