JAKARTA - Davina Karamoy greeted fans again through her latest film Andai Waktu Bisa Diulang Kembali. Playing as Dinar, Davina admitted that this character is very draining emotionally because of the complexity of the story that demands her to continue to be in a sad mood.
"I think it's definitely grateful, grateful and of course this is a very deep story for me. You can watch maybe 80% of this film, Dinar is sad. From the first meeting, I was very interested in the script that touched my heart," said Davina Karamoy when met in South Jakarta, Tuesday, July 14.
The depth of the film's story has even been felt by the actors since the first day of rehearsal. Davina told an emotional moment when all the cast could not hold back tears just by reading the script.
"Even at the first reading, we all read it, we all cried because it was from the story that it touched the heart. This is a pretty complex and challenging story for me," he recalled.
In this film, Davina is paired with her own best friend, Farhan Rasyid. Although it looks easy because they have known each other for years, Davina actually faces a unique challenge, namely holding back laughter when she has to act seriously.
"If you ask me, is it difficult to build chemistry with Farhan? In fact, I'm more into the difficulty of just holding back his laughter. Because in real life we are really friends, but if in the frame, Dinar is very introverted, right. If Davina meets Farhan, it's like 'What are you doing here?' like that," said Davina laughing.
Another challenge is how Davina has to see Farhan as Faiz's character, not as her best friend. He and Farhan often discuss outside the camera to ensure that their character's deepening is in sync.
"The challenge is more about how to tone it down and really see that Farhan is Faiz. We are indeed building the characters of Dinar and Faiz, this is really both of us, we discuss it a lot outside the frame like 'Han, it seems like Dinar is like this, how will you be like?' So the communication is very easy," explained Davina.
On the other hand, Farhan Rasyid who plays Faiz also feels that this character is very memorable for him. Faiz is portrayed as an ideal man who is very sincere in loving and protecting his partner.
"It's not impossible that there are men like Faiz who are really good, sincere, hardworking. He's the type of man who would never let his woman suffer alone. So if, for example, the woman has another problem, then we'll divide the two problems," said Farhan.
Farhan even said that Faiz's character reached the highest point in loving someone because he prioritized others over himself. For him, Faiz loves his partner's family as he loves his own family.
"That's the highest point in loving someone, Faiz. He doesn't think about himself anymore, he's probably the nth number. The first number is definitely Dinar, the second number even Dinar's mother is also a priority for Faiz," concluded Farhan Rasyid.
