I’ve been quite hooked with not only Malay novels lately, but also Malay dramas. I don’t know what has gotten into me, but somehow, I feel that it is really refreshing and quite interesting. I used to think that they’re rather lame… all they have to offer is just love, lame ghost story and the plot is somewhat a repetition. But these days, after following quite a few, I think they’re not so bad after all. In fact, they are quite modern and up to par with those international favourites from Bollywood and Korea.
The most recent dramas I’ve been hooked to is the dramatization of Adam& Hawa. Not too shabby, though I must say that the storyline a plot is a tad different from the novel.
Anyway, I stumbled upon one of the latest Malay movie known as ‘Aku Terima Nikahnya’, which brought the meaning ‘I accept this marriage’ or simply ‘I Do’ in English.
Check out the trailer here:
Quite an interesting story, but in my humble opinion, the plot and the storyline does have the similarities with ‘The Vow’
The only difference is that in ‘Aku Terima Nikahnya’, the one who lost the memories and forget everything is the guy, not the heroine.
Nevertheless, both are interesting in it’s own ways. :DÂ You might wanna check it out. Both are romantic, and if you’re a sucker for romance, you will like both of it, regardless the language.
Cleffairy: Thou shall not discriminate.
Malay? I prefer Indonesian…but I liked “Sepet”…and “Talentine”.
Indonesian? I’ve seen their addictive telenovellas, and feel like it can go on and on forever… ahahaha… so draggy, my God! Ohh…. Sepet! The late Yasmin Ahmad’s word… miss her so much… especially her Petronas ads!
