JAKARTA - Actor Omar Daniel appeared long last 2022. He admitted that he had canceled his short hair to play the character Gus Birru, who has a long hair model in the film Hati Suhita.
"Actually, at that time I wanted to cut my hair short, but I was detained for this character (Gus Birru), which in the novel turned out to be long," said Omar, quoted from ANTARA, Wednesday, May 17.
In addition, Omar must also grow a beard that is also owned by Gus Birru's character. He admitted that it was a bit difficult to take care of the beard because it was the first time he had grown a beard.
"Then for this thick beard, it just happened to be quite itchy and taking care of it was quite difficult," said Omar.
Omar admitted that he had unconsciously almost shaved his beard after brushing his teeth before filming. Luckily only part of his beard was shaved so that it could still be repaired. After filming finished, Omar returned to his short hair appearance.
The adaptation process of the appearance of the character played was also experienced by actress Nadya Arina.
Nadya Arina admitted that because the film Hati Suhita was her first religious film. She is not used to wearing the hijab so that playing the character Alina Suhita who is a religious woman and always wearing the hijab is a new experience for her.
"Because of the basics, I don't wear headscarves, and this is also the first religious film I play, it's a new experience," said Nadya, who was also present at the press conference.
At the beginning of the shooting process, Nadya admitted that he often felt hot and tired in his hair because he used the hijab for a long time. However, after entering the middle to the end of the shooting process, he had started to get used to it, even feeling like something was missing every time he didn't wear the hijab.
The film Hati Suhita, which was adapted from a novel with the same title by Khilma Anis, tells the life of the household of Gus Birru and Alina Suhita who are married because they were matched by Gus Birru's parents. The film will be shown in Indonesian cinemas starting May 25, 2023.
