Assalamualaikum Calon Imam
Starring Miller Khan (Foxtrot Six, 2019) and Mentari De Marelle (Siap Gan!, 2018), and directed by Indra Gunawan (Dear Nathan, 2017), Assalamualaikum Calon Imam is an emotional roller coaster of a romantic drama with sentimental and light comedic moments sprinkled throughout. The series is adapted from the eponymous 2017 story by Ima Madaniah, which was read by over 3.7 million people and was one of the Top 12 fiction titles in Indonesia that year. Nafisya (20) aka “Fisya” (played by Mentari De Marelle) is a strong, modern Muslim girl who, troubled by her parents’ divorce, has a difficult time with the notion of ‘marriage’. Her heart is further broken when her best friend, who she is secretly in love with, declares his intention to propose to her older sister. Fisya meets Alif (played by Miller Khan), the handsome but aloof new substitute teacher on campus. Alif seems to go out of his way to make life difficult for Fisya, when in fact the tomboyish and independent young girl has started to steal his heart.
