JAKARTA - The character of Shakira Jasmine is an actress known for her debut, the film Dua Garis Biru (2019). But who would have thought, he has long joined the Indonesian entertainment industry since childhood.
In 2013, he participated in the La Academia Junior Indonesia competition and qualified for the top 10. Three years later, he chose The Voice Kids and joined Team Agnes.
However, until now, his name is slowly known as an actor. He also returned with his second series this year, Royal Blood.
“Given the opportunity to become Anggi in Royal Blood, I think it's an opportunity that doesn't come twice. First, I want to thank Clarissa Tanoesoedibjo and Mas Eko Kristianto and all the teams involved for entrusting me as Anggi,” said Shakira Jasmine.
In her new character, Shakira Jasmine is required to speak Javanese. But it's not something that is difficult for the singer who was born on October 12, 2002.
“I love everything about art; singing, acting, drawing, writing, composing songs, everything is like it makes me feel alive, so doing something I really like makes the burden go away too,” he said.
Talking about acting, Shakira admits that she is still in the early stages. Two films and five series have not been a long list for his career. But she hopes that she can become an authentic actress in terms of acting.
"In acting, what I want to highlight is versatility. I can be anything, I can be anything, it's not just a singing role. I really want to be a character that can be in the sense of a paralyzed character, a horror character that is even more challenging for me," he explained.
Therefore, he learned a lot from acting coaches such as Banyu Bening, Yayu Unru, and Verdi Solaiman. He also tries not to be satisfied with the acting he has done so far.
Shakira's acting journey began in the film directed by Gina S. Noer entitled Two Blue Lines playing the character of Vini. The film was produced under the Starvision Plus banner and was released in theaters on July 11, 2019.
"At that time, the offer of acting didn't take long. Because I like all about art. I think the most fun thing about acting is that we can be other people. Trying to be someone who is completely different from ourselves," said Shakira.
As for acting, Shakira admitted that she initially felt insecure when faced with crying scenes. "I tried my best in various ways to get tears out. But the more I tried, the more difficult the tears came out," he explained.
Luckily, the acting teacher's assistance provided a lot of positive input. From the coaches, Shakira tried to change the perception of crying acting.
"We don't have to cry. But how do our acting reach the audience. That feeling of sadness and emotion can be captured and then make the audience cry," he said.
In the future, Shakira Jasmine wants to highlight her versatility. "I can be anything, I can be anything, it's not just a singing role. I really want to be a character that can mean a paralyzed character, a horror character that is even more challenging for me. I really want to try that. And I will insert the character from myself to make a character that people notice, so that's where it comes from," he hoped.
Studying and learning, Shakira also reads Stanislavski's theory and others. "I've been taught from Indonesia by Mas Banyu Bening, so I'm really happy. So far, the people who have taught me acting are the people I want to teach coaching as well. Mas Rosa, I really want the acting coach I've met, bro. Yayu, Mas Verdi, everyone has their own method," he said.
Indeed, unlike famous stars whose acting has received a lot of praise. Shakira Jasmine does not close her eyes that her acting is often questioned.
"Surely if the comments are but instead of saying it's a negative comment, I would say it's a constructive criticism. Even if the comment is "what's so bad about acting like this" Okay, I'll accept it's only bad where please give me insight so I can I can progress. Not even only other people, I myself like to criticize myself. It's fine it's okay. It makes me grow, "he explained.
Not wanting to limit herself, Shakira Jasmie is ready for any role in the future. "I believe that meeting is a match, a stroke of God, so whoever it is, I'm open," he said.
