GEMILANG : sure to leave massive impact after NUR KASIH

The title says it all actually.


Personally i think Kabir Bhatia has brilliantly and creatively direct this 13 episodes drama. So far only 2 eps have been aired, it they never failed to move me. The first ep was very sad and tragic indeed. I cant help myself but cry watching it. 2nd ep, i managed to control myself (hehe), and only let tears to form and dry as quickly. Fortunately, it seems like all the sad scenes of flashbacks dah xde, and the next ep will reveal how the main cast Saifullah will build the INSTITUT GEMILANG. 

Honestly, this drama is very unique indeed. I'm bored of malay dramas that always revolve around the same issue : company issues, rich and greedy people trying to steal each others wealth, cinta antara 2 darjat etc:. We hardly find drama like Gemilang, about a fresh graduate who has high ambition and great vision for the future. He chose to be an educator because he hope he can change the world to the better through his students.

So, here's a lil synopsis about the drama that is aired every MONDAY, AT 9.00PM at TV3. or you can watch it at tonton.com.my

According to the Director, Kabir Bhatia, the story is based on a true story about his deceased father in law ( Mira Mustaffa dad,who is also the writer). Shah Jazle is playing the role but with a different name, Cikgu Saifullah. Saifullah is a very intelligent boy and comes from a family of poverty.At the start of the story,  his mother died when giving birth to their fourth child. His father then decided to give away the children to foster families and later he died from an accident. Saifullah was taken into a rich family but he never forget his roots.

After he finishes his study at University Malaya, he works in a bank but his heart is not at peace. That is when he decided to go back to his village an open an institute called Institut Gemilang. the school is aimed to give students who failed their exams a second chance. However, the future of Institut Gemilang is yet pitch black. Everything is still uncertain and full of conflicts between friends and lovers. Stay tune to find out! it is only 13 episodes! so, come and follow!
