#SHOWBIZ: Eyka Farhana's source of strength
ACTRESS Eyka Farhana described her marriage to national and Terengganu FC (TFC) footballer Akhyar Rashid as a testament to patience and trust. Eyka said after a seven-year courtship marked by its share of challenges, their union was a matter of divine timing, noting the meaningful coincidence of their wedding date falling a day after Akhyar's birthday. "Praise be to God, after seven years... our marriage is finally strong. We can only plan, God determines everything," said Eyka. Reflecting on Akhyar's qualities, Eyka spoke of his ability to bring joy and strength to her life. "He always makes me laugh, and he always provides support and joy," she said, adding that Akhyar's devotion to his family was a key factor in her love for him. "The way to see how a man will take care of us is by seeing him take care of his family. Akhyar is also responsible, a gentleman and a good son," Eyka said. Akhyar, in turn, cited Eyka's personality as the primary reason for his affection, praising her politeness and care for his family. "What I like most is that Eyka is good at cooking," Akhyar shared. The couple tied the knot last Friday at Boathouse By The Lake Ampang. Eyka, whose full name is Wan Atiqa Farhana Wan Sarmizi, was married in a ceremony officiated by her father, Wan Sarmizi Wan Ibrahim, and witnessed by a representative from the Gombak Islamic Religious Office. The groom presented five trays of gifts, and the bride reciprocated with seven. Eyka received a dowry of RM3,200.

#SHOWBIZ: Eyka Farhana keeps mum about possible marriage on May 2
KUALA LUMPUR: The manager of actress Eyka Farhana, Dyba Farhana, is keeping mum about reports of her sister's upcoming wedding, purportedly set for May 2. Dyba explained that this cautious approach is to "avoid anything untoward from happening." Dyba indicated that Eyka and her fiancé, Terengganu FC winger Akhyar Rashid, will personally announce their nuptials once they are officially husband and wife. "At this time, as Eyka's younger sister, I am unable to confirm the news that has surfaced, primarily to avoid 'penyakit ain' (the evil eye)," Dyba told Kosmo! Online. "We hope everyone understands this situation. God willing, they will share any further developments themselves." Dyba also declined to comment on the reported wedding date of May 2, or the alleged subsequent ceremonies in Kedah on May 11. Sources claiming to have received invitation cards suggest a series of events are planned, including a henna ceremony, and reception celebrations in Kuala Lumpur (May 5), Kelantan (May 12), and Langkawi (May 16). The 30-year-old artiste, whose full name is Wan Atiqa Farhana Wan Sarmizi, has neither confirmed nor denied the distribution of these invitation cards. Akhyar, when approached during the final Super League match against Kedah Darul Aman FC last Sunday, mirrored his fiancée's reticence, remaining tight-lipped on the matter. The couple became engaged on Aug 4 last year.

Indonesian police confirm Malaysian influencer's 48-hour ‘disappearance' in Bandung forest staged for social media views
KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 7 — Indonesian police have confirmed that the reported disappearance of Malaysian influencer Eyka, who was said to have gone missing after entering a forest in Bandung, Indonesia, was staged for social media content. According to KumparanNews, authorities revealed that the disappearance was fabricated by influencers Ammar Nazhan Noralyadi and Aras to boost views and followers on social media. 'Ammar and Aras explained that they conducted a livestream on Sunday at Bukit Embah Garut RT 05, RW 09, Kelurahan Cisurupan, Kecamatan Cibiru, Kota Bandung, on TikTok, with the sensational story of 'Malaysian influencer (Eyka) disappearing for 48 hours after filming paranormal content.' 'The content was purely created to increase views and followers. They were unaware that Indonesian law imposes strict penalties for spreading false news. 'The content they created was not authorised by the authorities, despite approval from the local district manager,' Panyileukan Police Chief Kompol Kurnia was quoted as saying. Ammar and Aras have since apologised to the police, issuing written statements and a video confession, pledging not to repeat the incident. Earlier reports had said that Eyka was found safe after being missing for three days in a forest in Bandung. The 22-year-old's 'discovery', which purportedly occurred at around 10pm last night, was shared 'live' on TikTok @Arasz before going viral.
