Furthermore, Chelsea Islan also revealed that when she acted in other projects, people only recognized her during promotions. However, once the project was finished, people didn't call her by that name, unlike Bintang.

"I appeared twice in SEBELUM IBLIS MENJEMPUT, playing as Alfi, people would only call me that during promotions or when I'm in another project, they would only know me briefly. It's different with Bintang," she said.
