Having a career in the entertainment world for decades, the figure of Omas Wati will always be remembered. Not only active as a comedian, Omas is also known to have starred in several soap opera titles. To reminisce about Omas' journey as a comedian in the homeland, here are some reviews of the late Omas Wati's career journey compiled from various sources.

 

 

1. The Beginning of Liking Lenong

Born in Jakarta on May 3, 1966, Omas Wati grew up in a family environment of art lovers, especially Betawi art. Coming from an artistic family, Omas has been familiar with the lenong performing arts since she was seven years old. Since then, her interest in lenong has grown. Moreover, Mandra and Mastur, Omas's siblings, also have an interest in the same art.

2. Starting a Career from the Lenong Stage

Omas Wati's love for the lenong performing arts deepened. Lenong then became the gateway for Omas to become a famous celebrity. According to antaranews.com, Omas was once a member of Mastur's lenong group. The lenong group was called Sinar Baru.

3. Developing in Lenong

Lenong not only became the gateway for Omas Wati. Lenong also became the path that shaped Omas Wati into a comedian with character and distinctive traits. Through lenong, Omas also met several other Betawi comedians such as Mpok Nori, Mpok Atiek, and Malih. Together with them, Omas Wati filled the lenong show on television titled LENONG ABANG NONE.

4. Venturing into Soap Operas

Known for her funny and witty speaking style, Omas Wati once expanded her wings into the world of acting. She starred in several soap operas, such as CINTA FITRI, UPIK ABU DAN LAURA, KECIL-KECIL MIKIR JADI MANTEN, and many more. Despite only getting supporting roles, Omas' performance successfully brought a funny impression to the soap operas she starred in.

5. Known as a Comedian

Having a promising career as a soap opera actress, Omas Wati eventually chose to step back. Her advancing age became one of the reasons. Age and health conditions were considerations for not taking offers to shoot soap operas with uncertain working hours.

Despite taking a break from soap operas, Omas is still known as a comedian. She often appears on various talk shows as a presenter or guest star.

6. Establishing an Art Studio

Not only busy pursuing a career, Omas Wati, who has a concern for Betawi cultural arts, also managed to establish an art studio. An organization called Pangsi, which stands for Preservation of Betawi Cultural Art Studio, was successfully established by her and her brother, Mandra.

Not only that, Omas Wati also managed to establish a lenong group and a Betawi mask dance group called Letop. So, Omas Wati's concern for Betawi cultural arts is undeniable.

7. Passing Down Western Art to Children

Known as a witty and funny comedian, Omas Wati successfully raised three children on her own with love and motherhood. Yes, this woman who passed away at the age of 54 was a single parent. Growing up in an artistic family, Omas not only had a close relationship with her children, but she also passed down her artistic talent to them. However, Omas did not impose her will on her children. She left it all up to their own desires.

Those are some of the portraits and career journey reviews of Omas Wati. Her struggle in pursuing a career and her love for culture deserve our applause. Rest in peace, may you find peace in the presence of God, Mpok Omas.
