omedian and director Raditya Dika will release his new film, Single, next month through the Soraya Intercine Films production house.

'€œI'€™m trying to present the anxieties that single people feel through this film,'€ he said, as quoted by kapanlagi.com.

The stand-up comedian said the story of the film was mostly based on his own experiences.

Apart from directing, the 31-year-old stars in the film as Ebi, a shy person who does not know how to talk to women.

'€œHis younger sister is already married, and his mother keeps asking him to get married soon. The mental burden makes this character more complex and more matured,'€ said the director of Marmut Merah Jambu (Pink Marmot).

However, being single did not mean being miserable, he said, adding that singles usually had interesting stories to share.
