AKARTA: Musician Pongki Barata says that music will always be his priority even though he is set to star in a new film, Anak Kos Dodol (Silly Room Mates).
'As for my latest movie project, I agreed to join the team just because the director, Eman Pradipta, is my best friend,' said the former front man of Jikustik pop band.
'Plus, the shooting took place in Yogyakarta.'
'Music is my main business,' 37-year-old said. 'I make money from it, but I also make songs for charity simply because I want to.'
Pongki is currently member of The Dance Company pop-rock band along with top Indonesian musicians such as Ibrahim Imran (Baim), Agustinus Gusti Nugroho (Nugie) and Ariyo Wahab.
