Kapanlagi.com - Jirayut's career journey in the entertainment world began in 2018, when he participated in the D'Academy Asia 4 event representing his home country, Thailand. His cheerful personality and entertaining stage performances made many people happy to have him around.
Unfortunately, his journey in the D'Academy Asia 4 event only reached the top 10 round. He had to admit the superiority of his competitors who were more skilled in dangdut singing. Fortunately for Jirayut, Indosiar saw other potential in him.
One day after Jirayut was eliminated, Indosiar entrusted him to accompany Gilang Dirga, Irfan Hakim, Ramzi, and Uyaina Asyad in hosting the D'Academy Asia 4 event. Indosiar's choice was not wrong. Although still hindered by language barriers, Jirayut's presence as a host received positive responses from the public.
1. Career Shining Brighter
To develop Jirayut's talent as a host, Indosiar specifically provides MC training and also Indonesian language training. As time goes by, Jirayut's ability to host shows using the Indonesian language is increasingly honed.
In 2019, Jirayut was trusted to host various Indosiar programs, one of which was Liga Dangdut Indonesia (LIDA). In that year, Jirayut also had the opportunity to become a recording artist by releasing a single titled Jambret Cinta.
Jirayut's potential continues to be explored and developed. Not only as a presenter and singer, Jirayut's acting skills are also sharpened by involving him as a player in various TV movies.
Seeing Jirayut's continuously growing abilities and the positive response from the audience to Jirayut's presence, Harsiwi Achmad is confident that Jirayut's star will shine even brighter in 2020.
2. Liked by Mothers
Moreover, Jirayut has a good attitude. He remains a humble, friendly, and unpretentious person, even though his career is on the rise.
"This child is indeed pleasant and can be loved by the Indonesian people, and he is also a humble person. He is very embracing when invited off air in various regions, and he has a lot of followers. Besides millennials, mothers also really like him," said Harsiwi Achmad, Director of Surya Citra Media.
Therefore, Indosiar did not take long to extend the cooperation contract with Jirayut. Various program shows have already been prepared for Jirayut in 2020, as acknowledged by Harsiwi Achmad.
"Many people like him, that's why we will continue to develop his talent, not only as a presenter but also for acting in series, on air, and off air. Hopefully, he will develop to the maximum because he is truly talented, his voice is getting better, and his Indonesian language is becoming more fluent," he said.
3. The Next Indra Bekti
Even Harsiwi Achmad predicts that someday Jirayut will become the next Indra Bekti. "He is still young, his journey is still long. Even now his followers have surpassed Indra Bekti," said Harsiwi Achmad with a smile.
Harsiwi Achmad also added that if there is a production house interested in inviting Jirayut to play in a feature film, Indosiar is open to the opportunity, but with conditions. "If there is anyone interested, they can contact Indosiar, no problem," he said.
4. Becoming More Popular
Meanwhile, Irma Hidayat, one of the artist managers, said that it is very reasonable for Indosiar to retain Jirayut under an exclusive contract. According to her, Jirayut is an iconic figure, multi-talented, and entertaining. For example, if Jirayut's contract with Indosiar is not extended, she believes that other TV stations would be interested in him.
"It could happen, because it's very easy to sell Jirayut. Because he is iconic, funny, has many fans, and also has great potential because he could be the next generation of Irfan Hakim or Indra Bekti. But it seems like Indosiar won't let go of Jirayut," said Irma Hidayat, based on her perspective as a manager.
Irma also believes that Jirayut can become a mega star if he continues his career in Indonesia. "It's very possible as long as he is maintained, like I said earlier, he is multi-talented, can host, sing, and his actions are very entertaining," she concluded.
