Tika, who played the wife of a man with autism (Dwi Sasono) in the newly released drama Malaikat Kecil (Little Angel), said that she preferred to be in action films.

'€œSince playing the role of Fatmawati, I have received many offers to play the role of a young mother,'€ said the jujitsu athlete.

'€œI'€™m impressed by the beautiful and artistic movements of the art,'€ she said, adding that her classes would start next week.
