Aliando Syarief and Amanda Manopo Reveal Mystical Incidents During the Shooting of the Film 'INDIGO', Possession is Common?

Undergoing the shooting process for only 1 month in May 2023 at the Bogor villa. Actually, the estimated time was 2 months, but it was delayed due to national holidays and the fasting month.

Directed by Rocky Soraya, he assures that the film INDIGO is a new breakthrough, starting from the storyline, cinematography, and the cast. This will be a new challenge for Amanda, where she will let go of all her shadows and try something new. 

The reason Aliando was offered to play in a horror film genre was because of Amanda. It turns out, Aliando and Amanda have been friends since 2012. However, their communication was interrupted due to their busy schedules. This time, they are finally united in the same film project. Besides that, this is Aliando's first horror film after going through many considerations.

Amanda has often played in horror films from 2012 to 2023. This is her first horror film after a hiatus. She breaks the stereotype that soap opera actors can also play in feature films. In the eyes of the public, soap opera acting is somewhat exaggerated, while film acting is more professional and has a longer shooting duration.

Sara Wijayanto also plays a role in this film. There was an incident during the shooting at a house, at that time Amanda was inside the room. Sara, who had just come out of the bathroom, suddenly shouted, "Get out! Get out!" It wasn't Amanda who was being kicked out, but Sara was trying to drive away a creature that was inside the bathroom. Eventually, it was kicked out of the room to avoid disturbance, because according to Sara, it was a mischievous creature that didn't want to leave anywhere.

When asked, "Is it actually scary or not during shooting?", Aliando answered that the reading process is the one that needs to be serious, everything is told how the story goes. But on the shooting location, it's more relaxed, joking around, eating, and just playing cards. If suddenly someone gets possessed, it's already a common thing on the set, not something scary or amazing.

Why should we watch the movie INDIGO? Aliando answered, "To dissect a problem that can only be measured logically but we can perceive it metaphysically, that's only in INDIGO." Furthermore, they want to provide other interesting things about the movie, but it won't be exciting if there are spoilers. Wow, now I'm even more curious about the movie.   

Aliando and Amanda remind the audience to maintain cleanliness and health. Satan usually comes to people who are dirty and filthy. It's not just the physical dirtiness, but also the dirty thoughts that Satan likes to enter. So, cleanliness is not just about the body, but also the mind.
