Prefer to Manage His Own Business Rather Than Pursue a Career on Television, Hikmal Abrar: There is Regeneration

Kapanlagi.com - Actor Hikmal Abrar is now rarely seen on television screens. Many are certainly wondering where the actor who played Pak Tio in the soap opera 'Awas Ada Sule' is now.

When met in the Gunawarman area, Kebayoran Baru, South Jakarta, on Monday (27/6), it turns out that Hikmal Abrar has other activities, namely he is starting his own coffee shop business named 'Lobi'. In addition to the coffee shop, he also has a business in the logistics field, and Hikmal revealed the reason why he focuses on his business rather than pursuing a career in the entertainment industry.

1. Misses Filming

"Of course, I miss filming, but there is regeneration now, we switch to business, not because we are not successful in soap operas," said Hikmal Abrar.

However, it does not mean that the actor born in Medan has left the entertainment world. He said he still has a career in the entertainment industry, but the portion is reduced.

2. Started Since 2019

"The offers are still there, but we choose. Actually, there was filming yesterday, but we choose because we are now focused on our business," he said.

In addition, Hikmal explained that his coffee shop 'Lobi' has been started since 2019. During the three years of its existence, there are certainly challenges that he faced, especially since the coffee shop had to close due to the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic.

3. Challenges

"In the Food and Beverage industry, it's not as easy as imagined. Once we are in it, there are always troubles, but those are challenges that must be solved," he said.

"It's like a car is already there, but how the driver can steer it straight or turn first," he added.
