Can't Get Pregnant, Tamara Geraldine Ready to Face Criticism for Playing the Character of a Mother-in-Law Who Forces Her Daughter-in-Law to Have Children

Kapanlagi.com - Tamara Geraldine stars in the second season of the series INDUK GAJAH. She plays a character named Duma, a mother-in-law who pressures her daughter-in-law to have children to continue the family lineage.

Interestingly, the character Duma is very different from Tamara in real life. This fifty-year-old woman has actually experienced being pressured to have children.

1. Contrasting Character

Tamara Geraldine admits that she cannot have children, or is infertile. However, she has a stepchild whom she refers to as not her own blood, but rather the blood of Christ.

"The role I am playing is very contrasting. Because I am a Batak woman who has never been pregnant or given birth. I know the pressure, but here I am portraying a mother-in-law who pressures her daughter-in-law to get pregnant," said Tamara when met at CGV Cinemas Grand Indonesia, Thamrin area, Central Jakarta, Tuesday (30/7/2024).

2. The Risk of Having Many Haters

Through her role as Duma, Tamara Geraldine is confident that she will receive a variety of responses from the public, whether good or bad. However, that is part of the success of her acting.

"In this second season, my role is much more difficult and risky because there will definitely be more haters. I am grateful to be part of the shooting process for this series," emphasized Tamara.
