Brilio.net - Arie Kriting and Indah Permatasari are known to have married in 2021. Even though they have been married for 3 years and have a child, Indah Permatasari's mother, Nursyah, still does not approve of their second marriage. Even on his wedding day, Arie Kriting's in-laws chose not to attend.
It is not uncommon for Arie Kriting's mother-in-law to badmouth her daughter-in-law. Nevertheless, Indah and Arie's household is still harmonious to this day. Apart from the controversy over Arie and Nursyah's relationship, not many people know that the two of them were actually close.
This was revealed by Arie Kriting recently when he appeared as a guest star on a YouTube channel. Present with Indah Pertamasari , the comic from Wakatobi told about the beginning of his closeness to his wife. Who would have thought, if the two of them were not familiar even though they were in the same film project.
"I wasn't even familiar with him, I wasn't familiar. We didn't even exchange cellphone numbers. I don't know his cellphone number, they don't even know whether they have a WhatsApp cast group or not, I certainly wasn't invited. I don't know "Those people, I just come, play a film, go home. That's it," explained Arie Kriting, quoted by brilio.net from KISsist on Wednesday (20/3).

Arie was actually close to Nursyah, because at that time Indah played the main role and was often accompanied by her mother. Their closeness emerged because they both had Sulawesi blood. Arie is known to come from Southeast Sulawesi, while Indah is from South Sulawesi.
"There are a lot of them, right, they are the main players. There are a lot of scenes of high school students at home, the gangs. So I'm not too familiar with him. I'm familiar with my mother," he said.
The interactions that often occur on the shooting location make Arie Kriting and Nursyah become close and even have coffee together. Even though at that time, Indah and Arie were not yet close or mutually interested. A good relationship was established when Arie and Indah were involved in filming the film 'Stip and Pencil' in 2015.
"So because she had a lot of scenes, I waited a lot so I had coffee with the boss. At that time I felt like, tsk, this mother looks like it would be fun to be an in-law," added Arie.
Indah also joked about her husband's thoughts. He said his current condition was the opposite of his previous familiarity.
"You think like that, (now) it's the opposite," joked Indah Permatasari, greeted with laughter.

Arie and Indah's closeness actually emerged when the two of them were promoting the film 'Stip & Pencil'. At that time, Indah held Arie's hand, while Arie thought that the woman who was now his wife was just a child. There is no thought of Arie having a crush on Indah.
Then, Arie introduced Indah to her father. However, Indah said something unexpected that shocked Arie. Even though at that time, he was just joking.
"Yes, sir, this is her future son-in-law," said Indah, repeating what she said at that moment.
Apart from being close on the set, the comedian told how close he was to Nursyah like friends. In fact, Nursyah even invited Arie to come to her house. At that time, Indah asked for dried fish so Arie brought it for her.
"Actually, before the promo, I went to your house for Eid? Bring dried fish? Who asked for it? Who invited you to your house?" Arie asked.
"Mami. (The relationship) is still good," answered Indah, laughing.
"The first time I went to his house, he wasn't the one who invited me. Well, I just came," said Arie.
