#SHOWBIZ: Fasha Sandha not offended by elderly woman who didn't recognise her
KUALA LUMPUR: Actress Fasha Sandha has said she was not offended after a video of an elderly woman failing to recognise her recently went viral. Speaking at a press conference to announce the 208th branch opening of Kopi Saigon, a business she co-owns with her husband, Aidil Aziz, Fasha explained she holds no grudges over the incident. She added that she considers herself to be an ordinary person. "Not everyone watches television dramas or entertainment. Some people prefer religious programmes. So it's not surprising if they don't know who I am," she said. "I don't see myself as a celebrity. I'm just like anyone else who runs errands, goes to the market, and even drives themselves around. I only consider myself an artist when I'm on duty, like when I'm being interviewed by the media." Fasha, 41, added that she has always lived by the principle of humility. "I've always been this way. Being genuine makes people feel more connected to you. It's perfectly okay if someone doesn't recognise me." She pointed out that with the rise of social media and streaming platforms, many people no longer watch traditional television, making it understandable if some are unfamiliar with her work. Previously, Fasha shared a funny Instagram video of the elderly woman who, despite not recognising her, was seemingly taken by her beauty and grace. The woman even offered to set Fasha up with her grandson. Fasha believes the woman didn't realise who she was, especially because she was not wearing any makeup. "On TV, I'm usually fully made-up. But in person, I look very different. That's probably why she didn't recognise me," said Fasha.

KUALA LUMPUR: Kangar-born actress Rita Rudaini Mokhtar, 49, has been honoured by the Raja of Perlis, Tuanku Syed Sirajuddin Syed Putra Jamalullail, in conjunction with his 82nd birthday. Rita received the Pingat Jasa Baik (PJB) medal from the ruler of her home state at a ceremony held at Istana Arau, Perlis, two days ago. The award was bestowed upon Rita for her contributions to the creative industry, as well as her community and social service. Rita, who has been in the entertainment industry for 28 years, said in a Harian Metro report yesterday that the recognition was most meaningful to her as well as her two sons. "I thank God for this special day, and I thank His Royal Highness for the honour that I've received," she said. "I'd like to dedicate it to everyone who has supported my career all these years, including my two children, and all the producers, directors and actors whom I have worked with." Rita added that the award was a great incentive for her to work harder as an actress and become an exemplary citizen. "It's a reminder for me that if we all work hard and are honest and dedicated in what we do, we will be rewarded someday." Rita hoped that the award she received would inspire other artistes to strive hard and excel in their careers.
