Another Tribute.

One month ago, MJ, The one and only King of Pop passed away.

Now, another iconic individual from the entertainment industry, of Malaysia have followed MJ’s path. Yasmin Ahmad, the famous and well-talented director producing several award winning movies which brought fame and pride to our nation, have passed away.

I remembered, it was few years back around 2004 or 2005 if I have not mistaken… That was the first time I’ve heard of Yasmin Ahmad, thanks to her movie “Sepet”. I remembered very well as it was quite a popular movie back then with multiple award won. More on that, one of my friends which we refer to back then as similar to the main actor (plot, not face) in the movie “Sepet”, but he denied strongly when he heard of the tragic ending of the main actor in “Sepet”. Haha. . .

After “Sepet” it was “Gubra”, “Muksin” and lately “Talent time” which made a big hit on the silver screen. All so locally embodied, which you can feel at home and around you upon watching. That’s one of the specialty of her movies, you can feel home in it.

To our great Director/Producer/etc… Gone too sudden. . .

Your contributions will always stay & remembered. Farewell, Yasmin Ahmad.
