Before dating, Bastian admitted that he had been interested in Sitha for three years. They first met at the premiere of the film Putri Marino, Sitha's older sister. However, because it was too busy, the two of them didn't have time to get to know each other.
"When I first met Sitha at her sister's premiere, I didn't know what the story was, there was a moment when I looked at Sitha. They were both locked. It was called a busy premiere, we didn't get to know each other," he explained.
After sharing that moment of looking at each other, Bastian wanted to get to know each other. However, fate said otherwise that he didn't even know his name. Bastian didn't even know that Sitha was actually Princess Marino's younger sister.
Three years later, Bastian was told by one of his cousins that Sitha Marino was the younger sister of actress Putri Marino. After learning this information, Bastian tried to send a message to Sitha via Instagram Direct Message (DM). However, the actress did not reply to her message.
So, I tried to contact him, then I contacted him. "I didn't reply to my contact," said Bastian.
