Petualangan Sherina directed by Riri Riza and written by Jujur Prananto was one of the big project that paid off. Translated as Sherina’s Adventure in English, like Ada Apa Dengan Cinta I wrote before, this movie was one of the starters that woke Indonesian movie industry from a very long hibernation. I got the title right just when I type it because when I think again, P etualangan Sherina is really a movie about girl’s power and girl’s bravery and simply a story about Sherina, an 11 year old girl. Back then, it is a very familiar poster any (especially) Jakartans would see in public place. I'm more the person behind the scenes.Poster of Petualangan Sherina. I'm not Mulan Jameela who can really entertain, I'm not a people person. "I'm not really an entertainer, I don't really like that people know me. "But I would regret it for the rest of my life if I didn't do it now, when I my mind is still fresh."Ĭuriously, she says life is about a lot of "pretending". "It's something I have always wanted to do," she says of studying at university. She gets that she may be seen as throwing away her golden opportunities, that it would be daunting to try to come back to the top after a four-year hiatus. "They would tell me, this could happen if you do this, and this could happen if you do that, but it was up to me," she says. Although her parents tried to discourage her, the second of three daughters, from her entertainment ambitions at the outset of her career, ultimately it was her decision. Sherina, like many members of her new, more outspoken generation, has had the privilege of making choices. "I kind of see it as my last contribution to the market, and then I will have the whole year to focus on my preparations for university," she says. She is committed to making a movie musical early next year, coming full circle from her film debut in Petualangan Sherina. But no doubt many will be shocked to hear she is planning to leave the entertainment industry to attend university. One thing Sherina hates is being in her comfort zone - it makes her uncomfortable.
