Dewi Perssik returns to acting in musical drama Suara Hati

Indonesian singer Dewi Perssik is returning to acting after a 20-year hiatus through the musical drama series ‘Suara Hati’. Produced by MD Entertainment, the production company that launched her acting career two decades ago, the project marks a significant reunion for the artist.

Perssik portrays Melodi, a successful dangdut diva and beauty icon who navigates the complexities of motherhood and family life. The role presents unique challenges for the singer, as the character is a mother of two daughters, whereas Perssik has one son in real life. She noted that the emotional depth of the script, which involves themes of trauma and loss, has required significant preparation and intensive filming schedules.

Despite her nervousness about returning to the screen after such a long period, Perssik expressed hope that her performance will resonate with the public. She has been balancing the demanding production schedule with her regular television programs.
