JAKARTA - Nani Wijaya's career path in the entertainment world is very long. Having a career for 50 years, many can be remembered from the actress who died on Thursday, March 16, 2023.

Nani Wijaya was born a few months before Indonesia's independence, on November 10, 1944 in Cirebon. At the age of 16, Nani had made her acting debut with her appearance in the film Blood Tinggi (1960) directed by Lilik Sudjio.

Despite having a pretty good career as a teenage actress at that time, Nani Wijaya still chose to continue her education to college. He is noted to have studied at the University of Indonesia.

In his heyday, Nani won two Citra Cups in the Best Supporting Actor category through the films Yang Muda Yang Bercinta (1978) and RA Kartini (1983).

One of his most memorable roles for the Indonesian people is when he starred in the Bajaj Bajuri sitcom from 2002 to 2007.

The character who is quite annoying and causing confusion is the mother-in-law of Oneng (Rieke Diah Pitaloka) as well as the mother-in-law of Bajuri (Mat Solar), Nina managed to make Eti's character quite iconic in the eyes of the Indonesian audience.

He received the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Indonesian Movie Actors Awards 2021 and the Indonesian Drama Series Awards 2022.

During his illness, Bajaj Bajuri took turns visiting Nani Wijaya. The closeness to the players did not fade even though the situation comedy had long ended.

For personal life, Nani married in 1969 with director and writer from Lebak, Banten, Misbach Yusa Biran. Both live happily with six children, namely Nina Kartika, Tita Fitrah Soraya, Cahya Kamila, Sukma Ayu, Firdausi and Farry Hanief.
