Rising hot stars Harissa Adlynn and Daniel Fong lead the way for Astro's hotly anticipated new drama 'Kerana Seorang Lelaki'
Get prepared for another emotional and riveting roller-coaster local drama filled with twists and plots as the highly-anticipated "Kerana Seorang Lelaki" makes its way into the much-followed Tiara slot in Astro Prima's channel 105 from Aug 11. Led by two young stars, Harissa Adlynn and Daniel Fong, the drama depicts the consequences when a husband's highly guarded secret is revealed, pitting two families with different cultures and opposing views against each other over wealth and financial issues. For the record, the show will air from Monday to Friday and is expected to run for 40 episodes. Astro's top slot in the Prima channel has seen many top dramas being shown here and also scooping up top awards in the past. The drama sees the reunion of the audience's favourite couple from "Beautiful Love Revenge", Harissa Adlynn and Daniel Fong, who are entangled in a forbidden love story this time. They are ably supported by two influential female personas, veteran actress Marissa Yasmin and the elegant Soo Wincci, who play mothers from two different family backgrounds, but are bound by their love for the same man. Helmed by renowned director Michael Ang and produced by Darkwave Pictures, this drama also sees the debut of So Wincci as the main antagonist in the Astro Prima channel. The conflict begins with the sudden death of Richard Wong (played by Steve Yap), a corporate figure who apparently lives a secret life with two families who don't even know each other. The existence of two wives and children from different marriages sparks a clash between Madame Clarissa (Dr Soo Wincci), a high-status and assertive woman, and Puan Linda (Marissa Yasmin), a caring mother from a humble life. This clash of two worlds leads to a struggle for wealth, power, and affection, including a tragic love story between two children who actually share a blood relationship. Also starring are Arena Wan, Kahoe, Aiman Ameer and Nabil Aqil, completing the line-up of new and experienced actors who will bring the conflict and deep emotions to life in this drama. According to Norzeha Mohd Salleh, Head of Astro Malay Channels, ''Kerana Seorang Lelaki' takes viewers on a heart-wrenching story about a love gone wrong, a disputed inheritance, and two families at war over a man's secret past. "In a world divided by rank and power, two women rise not just to defend their rights, but also the dignity and future of their children. This script challenges the question of who is worthy of love, inheritance, and trust, making it a drama that not only entertains but also invites the audience to get into the characters' roles. "'Kerana Seorang Lelaki' is also not just a story of ordinary family conflict; it highlights real-life issues such as social gaps, religion, the importance of maintaining lineage, destructive greed, and the struggles of women in a world that often marginalises them. The female characters in this script are portrayed as brave, complex, manipulative, yet emotional, reflecting the real challenges that many women face today." Amid this conflict between the two mothers, their children, Kasih and Daniel, who were once a couple, without knowing they were siblings, become victims of family intrigue. Tensions escalate when Richard's will sees his company's empire being handed to, Kaseh and Daniel, sparking an inheritance battle that ignites the hatred of two worlds.

Harissa Adlyn: All my co-stars smell good!
1 Aug - Harissa Adlyn couldn't help but laugh at the chaos that she has created over her sharing a story about filming with someone with a body odour. The 22-year-old actress, who was asked about the issue recently, said that she received calls from many of her previous co-stars asking her if she was talking about them. "They even said that they are sorry if it was them," she said. "But I didn't mention any names. So, it could be anybody." Harissa also apologised to Daniel Fong and Nabil Aqil, two of her former co-stars who were affected by the issue as well. "They were okay about it. We even laughed about it because the whole thing is just funny. But I do feel sorry for actors who have worked with me like Redza Rosli and Niezam Zaidi. They all smell great," she said. Harissa said that she didn't intend to embarrass anybody, and that the reason she told the story previously was so that everybody will take good care of their hygiene. "I hope people will see it in a positive way, no matter what sector you are in. Make sure to take care of your hygiene," she added. (Photo Source: Harissa IG)
