Beby Tsabina admitted to being surprised when she found out that her film was canceled from airing in theaters and would only be released on streaming services. However, in the end, she felt that this was the best way for everyone involved considering the uncertainty of when theaters will operate.

"I never thought that this film would be aired on an application. It's normal if the film is released in theaters and then goes to an application. Because this is the first time, honestly, I was a bit surprised. I also wanted to find out what the effects would be. But in my opinion, this is the best option for now. So, I just say bismillah (in the name of God)," said Beby in a press conference via Zoom, on Thursday (10/9/2020).

2. Watched by Family in Aceh

With the release on streaming services, Beby Tsabina hopes that her film can reach more people. Especially families in Aceh who have been struggling to watch her work.

"I hope more people watch it because it's easily accessible. I have many relatives in Aceh, usually they can't watch my films when they're released. So hopefully they can watch it this time," said the actress who was rumored to be in a relationship with Bio One.
