Orang Filem

Allah Ta’ala telah berfirman dalam Surah Al-Bayyinah, ayat 5 yang kira-kira bermaksud:

"Padahal mereka tidaklah diperintahkan kecuali supaya beribadah kepada Allah, dengan memurnikan ketaatan kepada-Nya lagi bersikap lurus, dan supaya mereka mendirikan Shalat serta mengeluarkan Zakat.
Demikian itulah tuntunan agama yang lurus"




Our good KL friend, Hashim has been staying in Brunei for almost a week now, at our house. Other than Andy Flop Poppy, he's our one friend who loves coming to Brunei for holidays. He had just finished his Remp-it V3 movie. Now he'll be heading ahead with his Bunian - Mahkota Seri Helang movie project. He showed us the script, I read a bit part of it, hmmm.. quite a cool story. Something like the Malay version of the Lord of The Ring. I think. Hashim is going back to KL tonight. Hashim is Cahaya's business partner in KL, next to Ambri Kailani. The three of them are all orang filem. My Cahaya used to be a Production Manager for a number of Malay films - Nafas Cinta, Hanya Kawan, Black Maria, etc and a few drama series, Hotel (30 episodes), Senja ke Dini Hari, Kembara Bermusim (30 episodes), Penghujung Jalan (12 episodes), Kelip-kelip di Hujung Galah, Cinta Bunga Sarajevo, etc. Hashim is a professional Cameraman, Conti and Assistant Director. Insya Allah, he will start directing movies this year, that's what he promised. Meanwhile, Ambri is a well known name who had excellent credential working in the past with Datuk Yusof Haslam. I hope my daughter, Ummi will follow suit like these people, once she finished with her study.

Now I am with my beloved Cahaya and his friends Hashim and Jabar, hanging out at one nice, cool restaurant in Gadong. I'm having Penang char kway teow...mmm... not bad. Jabar is also Cahaya's key man in his company. He used to write song lyrics for the famous Lefthanded and now he spent most of his time in sports projects.
