Because he is believed to play serious characters, Indro Warkop did what is called research, especially related to dementia. He just found out that dementia affects each person differently.

"Because I am new to acting like this, when given a role, I did a little survey about what dementia is and at that time my in-laws experienced dementia. But it turns out that it is different for each person. There are also two films that I watched, but in the end, I took a different approach to natural dementia," said Indro quoted from a recent live conference.

2. Benchmark of Acting Ability

Indro Warkop made this film as a benchmark for his acting ability. Because through YANG PATAH TUMBUH, YANG HILANG BERGANTI he did not do comedy at all.

"This film is amazing for me. So it's a benchmark to see if I can act. Here, I learned from Clara Bernadeth, who is a newcomer, and also from Donny, who I have known for a long time but have never worked together. I really acted for the first time here," emphasized Indro Warkop.
