#SHOWBIZ: Celeb couple Rezky Aditya, Citra Kirana on happy marriage: 'Always spend time together'
Like many couples, the popular stars admit they're still learning how to build a harmonious life together.
Citra, affectionately known as Ciki, shared that both she and her husband strive to create a happy and lasting family life.
One way they do this is by finding common ground in every situation.
"There are always challenges in marriage, and it's important to face them with an open heart," she was quoted as saying in a news report yesterday.
"To keep things harmonious and romantic, we make time for just the two of us. One way we do that is by travelling together, including making trips to Malaysia."
The couple was recently in Malaysia to promote their film, Keajaiban Air Mata Wanita, which also marked their first time working together in a feature film.
They mentioned they would extend their visit for a short holiday.
"Spending quality time together is very important in any relationship. Having shared hobbies is also crucial, and right now, we're both really into pickleball," she added.
Citra, known for her role as Yumna in the 2023 film Air Mata di Ujung Sajadah, emphasised the importance of patience and understanding in a marriage.
"Even though we've been married since 2019, we're still in the process of learning how to understand each other," she said.

Indonesian rising star Fajar is the latest to join superstar Bunga Citra Lestari's starry KL concert on Sept 27
The Bunga Citra Lestari concert in Kuala Lumpur - 'BCL - Eternal Love, Timeless Romance' - is really becoming a starry affair. With Malaysian diva Jaclyn Victor and top violinist Dennis Lau already on board, Indonesian rising star singer Fajar has also confirmed his participation in the much-awaited concert to be held at the Plenary Hall, KLCC, on Sept 27. Fajar, real name Fajar Noor, is an Indonesian singer who recently gained recognition for his participation in Indonesian Idol season 13, where he finished as the runner-up. He is known for his powerful vocals and was a standout contestant. Fajar also performed at the Grand Final of Indonesian Idol XIII, singing his single "Tahta Hatiku #Pendampingmu". He has also been featured in events like the "Spektakuler Show 7" and has collaborated with other top Indonesian musicians. As for the concert, he is expected to belt out at least three of his top singles for music fans in the country. Besides Fajar, Jaclyn Victor, and well-known Malaysian composer and violinist Dennis Lau will also be joining Bunga Citra on the stage for the show. Bunga Citra had earlier added that she cannot wait to share the stage with Malaysian diva Jaclyn Victor, who celebrates her 20th year in the music industry this year. Jaclyn also recently celebrated her milestone with the long-awaited release of her seventh album in mid-January 2025. Having long admired the vocal strength of the first Malaysian Idol winner, Bunga Citra said she could not contain her excitement when the Gemilang singer finally agreed to perform at her concert this September. At a recent press conference here to announce her "BCL: Eternal Love – Timeless Romance" concert, the Indonesian diva described the opportunity to share the stage with Jaclyn as "deeply meaningful and a great honour'. "I've been a fan of Jaclyn for a long time. When she started singing at this event (the press conference), I nearly cried. She has a powerful yet gentle voice. I think she is one of the greatest singers in Asia," she said during the event in KL last month. Jaclyn, who has won numerous awards, including at the Eighth Shanghai Asia Music Festival, said when she received the invitation to sing at BCL's concert about a month or two ago, she agreed without hesitation out of respect for the Indonesian singer's stature in the regional music industry. Meanwhile, the Bunga Citra also said that she first knew Lau after seeing a video of him covering her hit song "12 Tahun Terindah", which the singer said was very well executed. That also played a role in her choosing Lau to guest-perform at the concert. "He is a brilliant musician. That says it all. We're gonna give a performance fans will not forget," said Bunga Citra. The concert is expected to run for more than two hours as BCL will also be joined by her band, along with backup dancers and vocals. The special one-night show of romantic tunes with the Indonesian superstar is organised by Pulse Project Asia. Tickets are available now at .my with 10% off using promo code: fajarlove or bcl88sale. Concertgoers can also enjoy exclusive Malaysia Airlines flight discounts after purchasing tickets, plus Atome discounts up to RM90 for flexible payment.

Malaysian netizens mock Indonesia's new animated film quality
THE perpetual competition between Indonesia and Malaysia has always been a source of entertainment for the cyberspace, and for good reasons. And recently, the heat is being turned up once again by a netizen who highlighted the poor quality of Indonesia's new animated movie, 'MERAH PUTIH: ONE FOR ALL,' in comparison to Malaysian animation such as Upin dan Ipin. Now i know why Indonesia always stick to Upin Ipin and Malaysian animations. — The Tsoi Gun 🇲🇾 (@CallSignTsoi) August 10, 2025 'At first I thought it was some netizen making a meme, but it was a real production,' said @shahnonsalleh while @CallSignTsoi pointed out it was 100% made by the Indonesian government. However, @BergschrundOM corrected that the production was only backed by the government. According to @IndoPopBase, the animated movie had a production budget of Rp6.7 bil, which is the equivalent to RM1.7 mil. That is no small sum of money. The result, however, was lacklustre. The MERAH PUTIH: ONE FOR ALL will be released on 14 August 2025, in conjunction with Indonesia's 80th independence anniversary. The film tells the story of a group of children who travel to find a stolen red and white flag so that it can be used in their village's independence celebration. The storm of criticism continues. 'Money Laundering. The director don't even care about opinion,' @Id77Kgt remarked. 'It's so ugly, why do people watch this?' said another. 'They don't. If any, either it becomes a 'must-watch-or-else' task for official government or school students, or they're bribed to watch it. There has been circulating DMs about being paid to watch this abomination,' said @ryuumajin. Perhaps the most biting comment came from @not2ez4mee who said, 'Even Upin Ipin season 1 is better than that movie.' However, the film does have its supporters. @Naxa83 remarked that the graphic might not be good looking but it is filled with messages of patriotism and unity. 'Only the cost is a little high and it does not fulfill the audiences' expectation,' he said. —Aug 11, 2025 Main image: @CallSignTsoi (X)
