For years, before the Ganjil Genap movie, rom-com movies, romcom meaning romantic comedy, have dominated our screens might it be in cinemas, television, and streaming platforms. It sets a particular portrayal of an ideal relationship that we all wish to experience one day.
While some might have been lucky enough to experience love similar to the love we see on screen, not all of us have been so lucky. In the 21st century, might it be safe to say that romance and commitment have taken an interesting turn, especially in MD Pictures’ new movie, Ganjil Genap?
Ganjil Genap Movie by MD Pictures, The New Rom-Com That Relates To Your Love Life!
MD Pictures, being the biggest production house in Indonesia, thrives on producing films that resonate with the Indonesian crowd on a deeper level which resulted in our new upcoming movie “GANJIL GENAP”.
Ganjil Genap meaning in English “odd-even” which is a unique culture of Indonesian traffic laws–and this movie plays a romcom twist in it! The movie is directed by director Bene Dion Rajaguguk, produced by the one and only Manoj Punjabi, and is starred by talented famous stars including Clara Bernadeth, Oka Antara, and Baskara Mahendra.
Compared to the past where marriage seems to be an obvious end goal of every relationship, as years go by, things have somewhat changed. Ganjil Genap takes a unique turn in portraying how modern romance is conducted in the age we currently live in.
Gala and Bara have been dating for more than 7 years, yet on their 8th anniversary, Bara broke up with Gala with the classic excuse of ‘we’re not right for each other anymore’. To no surprise, this sent Gala spiraling.
Gala has always imagined living her life with Bara by her side— yet all of a sudden it was gone just like that. Bara and Gala, are two very different people with very diverse reactions to their break up. Yet, both have lots of obstacles in their pursuit of finding love after one another in a world where loving committed relationships are as rare as diamonds.
