S'tars

I recieved a text message first thing this morning from my cast mate Zimy, which read:

"MY FRIEND SAID WE'RE IN THE STAR TODAY!"

Within minutes, I had spread the word to my other castmates. I'm normally extremely apologetic when I wake people up from their slumber and beg them in a baby voice to try to go back to sleep after they hang up, but today I was a ruthless b*stard.

S'kali The Movie has hit the press for the first time today in The Star newspaper. It was supposed to adorn the front cover of the lifestyle pullout, but people who do silly card tricks on the street are apparently more important than THE BEST MOVIE EVER MADE.

The article was well-written; it focused on our director, Arivind, the founding of Perantauan Pictures and the process of initiating its first business venture.

There was a little sub-story on the cast. The picture that came out was great... but I noticed that it went through some tweaking before it reached the ever-scrutinizing eyes of the public. This is the heavily edited picture of five decent-looking individuals doing the chummy-wummy pose.



But I present to you the whole truth, and oh, how the angels weep.


The teaser poster has just come out too. The marketing team came up with the ingenius idea of leaving my tragic mug out of the picture, unfortunately sacrificing the marketable faces of those blessed with illegally good genes.



Alas, the essence of mankind's survival is to choose the greater good.
