JAKARTA - The film Agak Laen: Menyala Pantiku continues to shine even though it is facing increasingly fierce competition on the big screen. Now, the film has officially surpassed the achievement of the number of viewers in the first film.
In the first work, four comedians directed by Muhadkly Acho, received a total of 9,126,607 viewers. And on Thursday, December 25, their second film successfully recorded 9,218,660 viewers.
Interestingly, the number of movie viewers for this second Agak Laen production was achieved in 28 days of screening. It is still possible for this film to breathe longer with a higher number of viewers.
With this achievement, Agak Laen: Menyala Pantiku ranks third in the list of the highest-grossing Indonesian films of all time. Its position is below Jumbo with 10,233,002 viewers, and KKN in Desa Penari with 10,061,033 viewers.
It should also be noted that the number of movie screens has decreased along with the arrival of other box office films. One of them is Avatar: Fire and Ash which invaded the Indonesian cinema screen since December 17 yesterday.
However, a number of circles assess that this film has the potential to surpass Jumbo's achievements as the highest-grossing film. Even Ryan Adriandhy, Jumbo's creator, also agreed and was not at all bothered if his film was overtaken by the quartet of Agak Laen.
For Ryan, this is actually a sign of the rise of the Indonesian film industry. This momentum is proof that the Indonesian cinema audience has great confidence in the works of Indonesian filmmakers.
