Actor Fattah Amin's Post For Singer Amira Othman Raises More Speculation About Their Relationship
Since separating from actress Nur Fazura, actor Fattah Amin has found himself the subject of numerous dating rumours linked to singer Amira Othman. While the two haven't confirmed their relationship, a recent social post did little to stop the gossip. Yesterday (16th June 2025, Monday), Fattah surprised fans when he posted a photo of Amira on his Instagram account. The picture depicts the 31-year-old singer in a hospital bed. Despite the situation, she's smiling while holding a flower bouquet. In the captions, the 'Bidaah' actor wrote a message for Amira, 'Get well soon teman sekerja (co-worker)', wishing her a speedy recovery. Amira is reportedly in the hospital for food poisoning, prompting well-wishes from fans. However, the post mostly sparked amused comments from netizens, poking fun at the rumoured couple. Some also pointed out that Fattah shared the message on his Instagram feed instead of his Instagram Stories, quipping that it could suggest a deeper bond between the two stars. Fattah and Amira have been caught up in dating rumours for months. While the two denied any romance with each other, their interactions continue to lead netizens to believe otherwise. The allegations strengthened after the two reportedly met each other's family members. There were also rumours that the pair were engaged, but Fattah quickly shut down the allegations. Regardless, fans have supported Fattah and Amira's relationship, saying they seemed like a good match. The family members have also 'accepted' the other party into the family, seemingly approving of any romance between the two. At the same time, netizens also expressed interest in seeing the 34-year-old actor get back into the dating scene following his divorce from Nur Fazura last September. Let's hope to hear good news from Fattah and Amira soon, but what are your thoughts on this? Do you think something is going on between the two?

Faizal Hussein admits to newfound fame after "Bidaah"
23 May - Faizal Hussein recently admitted that he is being recognised by more people outside Malaysia following the success of his web drama, "Bidaah". The actor, who plays the role of cult leader Walid in the drama penned by Erma Fatima, said that he has been getting a lot of offers to appear on podcast shows and do digital content since playing the character, which has now gone viral. "They offered me a hefty amount of money. But I turned them down because none of that was a part of my profession as an actor," he said. Faizal also admitted that his social media following has also grown larger, both from those who enjoyed his performance and those who jokingly offered themselves to be his wife. "I don't understand why they would be sending me such messages, although I am their father or grandfather's age. But then again, as long as I don't respond, it's fine," he added. It is noted that Indonesian viewers were the ones who enjoyed the drama very much, with the character Walid and his infamous line, "Close your eyes and imagine my face" becoming the new Internet meme.

Creative industry can boost M'sia-Indonesia ties, says ambassador
Malaysia's ambassador to Indonesia, Syed Mohamad Hasrin Tengku Hussin, with Malaysian director Erma Fatima. JAKARTA : Malaysia's creative industry, particularly in film and drama, has the potential to become a new bridge for strengthening cultural ties with Indonesia, according to Malaysia's ambassador to Indonesia, Syed Mohamad Hasrin Tengku Hussin. Speaking during a courtesy call by Malaysian director Erma Fatima, whose real name is Fatimah Rahmad, and her delegation, he said the power of storytelling and the shared cultural values between the countries could help deepen bilateral relations. 'Once upon a time, Malaysia and Indonesia had a cultural exchange programme known as Titian Muhibah, organised by Radio Televisyen Malaysia, Televisi Republik Indonesia, and Radio Republik Indonesia,' he said. Syed Mohamad Hasrin said the programme had served as a platform for introducing arts and culture, and strengthening bilateral relations. 'It is time to revive the era of closeness between Malaysia and Indonesia. Through various creative initiatives, we can build new bridges that further strengthen the sense of kinship and the Nusantara spirit,' he said. The most successful local production to penetrate the Indonesian market so far is the animated series Upin & Ipin, which has captured the hearts of young viewers and become a cultural icon representing Malaysia across Indonesia. 'The success of Upin & Ipin proves that high-quality content that resonates with regional values has great potential for international acceptance,' Syed Mohamad Hasrin said. Malaysia can also take pride in its latest television series Bidaah, produced by Erma's Rumah Karya Citra, which has the potential to be another important platform for enhancing cultural ties with Indonesia. 'We hope that local works highlighting shared values will form the foundation for strong Malaysia–Indonesia relations and renew the spirit of cultural cooperation in this modern era,' Syed Mohamad Hasrin said. Since its premiere last month, Bidaah has become the most-watched drama on Viu, an online streaming platform, garnering over 2.5 billion views across digital platforms and social media in Malaysia and Indonesia.

The series has the potential to be another important platform for enhancing cultural ties with Indonesia. - ONG SOON HIN/The Star JAKARTA: Malaysia's creative industry, particularly in film and drama, has the potential to become a new bridge for strengthening cultural ties with Indonesia, according to Malaysia's Ambassador to Indonesia, Datuk Syed Mohamad Hasrin Tengku Hussin. Speaking during a courtesy call by renowned Malaysian director Erma Fatima, whose real name is Fatimah Rahmad, and her delegation, he said that the power of storytelling and the shared cultural values between the two countries could help deepen bilateral relations. "Once upon a time, Malaysia and Indonesia had a cultural exchange programme known as Titian Muhibah, organised by Radio Televisyen Malaysia (RTM), Televisi Republik Indonesia (TVRI), and Radio Republik Indonesia," he said. Syed Mohamad Hasrin noted that the programme served as a platform to introduce the arts, culture, and to strengthen bilateral relations continuously. However, it is no longer active, leaving a gap in the once-close cultural ties. "It is time to revive the era of closeness between Malaysia and Indonesia. Through various creative initiatives, we can build new bridges that further strengthen the sense of kinship and the Nusantara spirit," he said. The most successful local production to penetrate the Indonesian market so far has been the animated series Upin & Ipin, which has captured the hearts of young viewers and become a cultural icon representing Malaysia across Indonesia. "The success of Upin & Ipin proves that high-quality content that resonates with regional values has great potential for international acceptance," he added. Malaysia can now also take pride in the latest television series Bidaah, produced by Erma's Rumah Karya Citra, which has the potential to be another important platform for enhancing cultural ties with Indonesia. "We hope that local works highlighting shared values will form the foundation for strong Malaysia-Indonesia relations and renew the spirit of cultural cooperation in this modern era," Syed Mohamad Hasrin said.
