Da: are there any filmmakers in indonesia that you’d like to work with in the future? RK:

I’d love to work with nia dinata. She is such a real person—humble, creative, fun, outgoing. and to me she’s very a close friend as well. I have very good energy with her. everyone I’ve worked with has been lovely, from Fajar nugros to hanung Bramantyo. Since I’m still new to the industry, I’d love to meet with all of these directors and producers. But so far, I’ve been lucky enough to work with some of the best.

It’s kind of easy for me. I don’t know why, even when something bad happens, I try to overcome it quickly. Then I’m happy again and I don’t let it get to me. I’m never ever depressed. all of my friends know that I can never get depressed. I’m always happy. I think it relates to my sign. as a Sagitarius, I’m usually always happy and always enjoy life.

I have to be better than I was yesterday. Though, in some ways, I say that literally every day. I’m trying to reach for a challenge or do better than anything I’ve done. at least I challenge myself to do better, even if I may fail. I’m trying to make it not too repetitive every single day, and I’m always trying for something different. I believe that if you continue to explore, you will always find something new.

There is a campaign called “make a Promise” initiated by louis Vuitton Indonesia hand in hand with UnICeF, in order to raise funds for Syrian children. The aim is obviously to help refugees in Syria and it is still an ongoing campaign. louis Vuitton made these beautiful little silver lockets and all the proceeds go to helping children. It was a great campaign.

Well, hopefully people that know me would want to follow the path that I take. and I think it’s my obligation to give back. When I say give back, I mean in so many things. not just educating people, maybe giving back to society through charity or simply giving back towards a good cause. So, in my position, it’s good to be involved, give back and contribute. Because doing that actually gets other people to join the cause. I’m forever grateful.
