#SHOWBIZ: Ailing actor Dharma: 'I want to work, can be a producer'
KUALA LUMPUR: Popular 1980s actor, Dharma Harun Al-Rashid, 69, has expressed his clear refusal to rely on donations as his primary source of income. Instead, he is keen to return to work.
Dharma specifically aims to continue his career in the creative industry, focusing on behind-the-scenes roles as a producer.
"Give me work. When there's work, the money will come automatically," he said during the special screening of the new film 'Felai Fx' at the National Film Development Corporation (Finas) in Petaling Jaya yesterday.
The veteran actor shared that his recent involvement in 'Felai Fx' had successfully reignited his passion for being back on set.
"I don't think of this as a job, but something I truly love," he added.
Dharma is also grateful for the continued support from his friends, who often visit him at his residence in Wangsa Maju, Kuala Lumpur.
"Many old artiste friends have come to visit me, such as Datuk DJ Dave, Noor Kumalasari, and Haiza. When we share stories, I instantly feel happier."
Previously, producer Richard Ung organised a special screening of the action film 'Felai Fx', which stars Dharma, and also channelled donations to him.
Dharma suffered a stroke a few years ago but is now gradually recuperating.
