In the midst of a seemingly fragile family portrait in the film DAD, WHERE IS THIS HEADING?, there will be a figure who becomes the support and source of strength. This character is Bumi, played by actor Baskara Mahendra.

Bumi is portrayed as a man who is always there for Dira, especially during tough times when Dira's family is hit by a crisis. "Maybe what I can share from the trailer we just saw, Bumi is a character who always provides his shoulder for Dira," said Baskara Mahendra when met in the Menteng area, Central Jakarta, on Tuesday (24/03/2026).
