Brilio.net - The film Vina: Before 7 Days by filmmaker Anggi Umbara has become a public topic of conversation. This film is based on the tragic story of a teenage girl named Vina Puspita. This girl was the victim of a sadistic murder carried out by a motorbike gang in 2016 in Cirebon.
Unfortunately, this case has not been resolved even though eight years have passed. Some of the perpetrators of the murder have not been caught, this case is still being investigated by the police. The West Java Regional Police who are handling this case are still having difficulty chasing down the three perpetrators who are still on the wanted list or DPO. Recently, 1 DPO was arrested.
Rumor has it that these three perpetrators come from important families. Therefore, it is difficult to catch the three of them even though this case has been running for eight years. During the filming process, director Anggy Umbara revealed that his team had experienced problems.

When interviewed by Liputan6, Anggy explained that there were parties claiming to be police who came to the shooting location. He explained that there were several parties who did not want Vina's story to be made into a film.
"Perhaps there are some parties who don't want this film to be made into a film. On the fifth day, people who claimed to be police approached them," said Anggi, quoted by brilio.net from Liputan6.
As a result, film shooting was temporarily stopped. The team was asked for information, permits and various other documents.
"Our filming was stopped, we were asked for information, we were asked for all kinds of permits," he added.

"Instead of talking about Vina's perpetrators who haven't been caught, it's better to give an advice from Nikita Mirzani, Vina's film is about to reach four million (viewers), right? Ask for royalties," said Nikita Mirzani, reported by brilio.net Friday (24 /5).
This profit is obtained from the large number of viewers of the film. This mother of three revealed that the profit for one million film viewers is estimated at IDR 15 billion.
"Because if it's just one million viewers, that's more or less Rp. 15 billion. Imagine, if it reaches four million viewers, it's Rp. 15 billion, just calculate it yourself," said Nikita Mirzani.

"It would be better for Vina's mother, Vina's family, to ask for royalties. That's what is visible to the eye," he added.
