Dwi Sasono And The cast Suddenly Dangdut (Tari/VOI)

Dwi Sasono joined the 2025 version of the sudden Dangdut film. Previously, he played in a film of the same name in 2006.

Still directed by Monty Tiwa, Dwi Sasono was happy to be invited to join the latest version of the film Suddenly Dangdut.

It feels like a flashback 16 years ago. So remember the presscon first again. Remember Titi (Kamal), Kinaryosih and hopefully there will always be a Suddenly Dangdut in the next generation because "said Mr. Monty, dangdut never dies," said Dwi Sasono at a press conference on Wednesday, April 9.

"It's really nice to travel. It's impossible to be here if it weren't for this film. From the role of the village orchestra's single organs, he is now a producer," he said.

Different from the previous film, Dwi Sasono plays Rizal Maduma, a producer and promoter of Larung Pes. In his first trailer, he looks at the character Naya Wardhani, played by Anya Geraldine, starting the dangdut stage.

Furthermore, Monty Tiwa and producer Indra Yudhistira explained that this film is proof that the views and shifts to dangdut music are different from the era when they made their original film.

I feel dangdut music today is at its best moment. Maybe look at the dominance of dangdut koplonya Denny Caknan, Happy Asmara and others and we remember that in the past year on TikTok there was Salt and Honey, the development of hip hop music collaborated with dangdut. Some of them were also exposed to classic dangdut, "the story of Indra Yudhistira as the producer.

"The theme of cultural conflict is always relevant in Indonesia. The change from the status quo to a new status. Suddenly Dangdut is that. 2006 you could say we took a big risk because we still remember that year the perception of dangdut in urban cities is not seen as fun music," added Monty Tiwa.

Suddenly the Dangdut version of 2025 tells the story of Naya Wardhani (Anya Geraldine) who is required to start a dangdut stage to avoid something. Assisted by Wawan (Keanu Angelo) and Wendoy (Fajar Nugra), Naya changed the music genre.

Dangdut's sudden film will hit Indonesian cinemas starting April 30.
