S'kali In The Star

"Taking this opportunity to expound on their creative juices, 22-year-old Arivind Abraham and his group of entrepreneur friends decided to form a company – Perantauan Enterprise – which will oversee film, theatre and other creative productions. The group’s filmmaking arm, Perantauan Pictures, has its first slate – Abraham’s feature film debut, S’kali.

The film’s title is derived from what the waiters at the mamak restaurant asks when it comes time to pay the bill. If you’re in a group, you have the choice of paying individually (bayar asing) or together (s’kali). And since the film revolves around five college friends in Kuala Lumpur who will be going their separate ways as they find their own path in life, Abraham thought the title fitting." - excerpt from The Star 220206.



"THE independent feature S’kali boasts five new faces who answered the casting call almost two years ago and recently finished principal photography for the film. The filmmakers had decided to cast unknowns and were looking for three guys and two gals. They finally decided on KL-ites Davina Goh, Jayaram Nagaraj, Derek Ong, Angeline Rose and Zimy Rozan.

In a recent interview with the cast, who were shooting at the Syed Abu Restaurant in Bandar Utama, the actors revealed what made them turn to acting and what their filmmaking experience was like." - excerpt from The Star 220206
