Kejutan Tiara buat Hani Karmila

Oleh MOHAMMAD ARIF NIZAM ABDULLAH

TARIKH 25 Julai tahun lalu, dunia seni hiburan dikejutkan dengan berita pelakon versatil, Hani Mohsin menghembuskan nafas terakhir ketika dikejarkan ke hospital selepas pengsan di Terminal Penerbangan Tambang Murah (LCCT), Sepang, akibat serangan jantung.

Allahyarham pergi buat selama-lamanya pada usia 41 tahun ketika merancang untuk bercuti bersama anaknya, Hani Karmila, 10, ke Langkawi.

Tanpa disedari, peredaran masa yang semakin pantas menghadirkan tarikh yang sama lagi. Lalu genap sudah setahun hilangnya insan seni yang berkarisma itu.

Dan pada malam 25 Julai lalu, di banglo Allahyarham tidak berlalu sepi seperti malam-malam sebelumnya. Satu majlis tahlil dianjurkan oleh bekas isteri Allahyarham, Datin Seri Tiara Jacquelina.

Selesai majlis tahlil, Tiara menghadiahkan sebuah buku koleksi gambar Allahyarham dari zaman kanak-kanak sehingga bergelar pelakon buat Hani Karmila yang mesra dengan panggilan Mila.

Anak tunggal itu adalah hasil perkahwinan Tiara dengan Mohsin pada 11 September 1993. Bagaimanapun pasangan itu bercerai pada 16 Februari 1998.

Tiara kini merupakan isteri kepada Menteri di Jabatan Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Effendi Norwawi dan dikurniakan anak lelaki bernama Eridani.

Kala Malam Bulan Mengambang khas buat arwah Hani Mohsin

Oleh Nor Fadzilah Baharudin

BIAR apa juga tanggapan yang dilemparkan terhadap karyanya, pengarah filem Mamat Khalid tidak pernah menganggap itu sebagai kudis yang menyakitkan.

Malah semua kritikan dan tohmahan yang dilemparkan, dianggapnya sebagai pemberi semangat untuknya berkarya. Justeru sebuah lagi filem garapannya berjudul Kala Malam Bulan Mengambang (KMBM) terbitan Tayang Unggul Sdn. Bhd., bakal menemui penonton pada November depan.

Filem genre komedi seram ini membariskan para pelakon hebat seperti Rosyam Nor, Umie Aida, Avaa Vanja, Farid Kamil dan ramai lagi. Telah pun selesai penggambaran selepas dua bulan di lokasi sekitar Kuala Lumpur dan Tronoh, Perak, Mamat Khalid menjanjikan kelainan yang ketara pada filem arahannya kali ini.

*** Arwah Hani Mohsin memang berjaya menghidupkan watak Jimi dalam filem Jimi Asmara . Arwah agak malu-malu bila melakonkan watak ketika menyanyi hip-hip horey, hip-hip horey. Ketika menonton Jimi Asmara 3 Minggu lepas di RTM serasa arwah masih ada lagi. Manakala Azhar Sulaiman begitu bersahaja menggerakkan badan mengikut irama pop yeah yeah, cayalah. Lakonan pendokong watak filem tersebut begitu berjaya sekali sehingga berjaya membangkitkan nostalgia masa lalu.

Filem ini merupakan sebuah filem berlatar belakangkan tahun 50-an yang disampaikan dalam bentuk Neo-Noir bagi menyesuaikan penceritaannya. Noir berasal dari perkataan Perancis yang membawa maksud perbezaan dari segi stail atau bentuk penyampaian filem itu sendiri di mana KMBM disampaikan dalam bentuk visual hitam putih.

“Memang ini merupakan sebuah filem yang mencabar bagi saya. Filem ini umpama back to basic. Kalau orang lain berlumba-lumba buat filem yang pelbagai teknik dan sebagainya, saya memilih untuk membuat filem hitam putih. Sebab utamanya, saya sukakan cabaran. Filem warna warni saya dah buat. Jadi filem hitam putih ini memberi saya peluang untuk belajar lagi teknik pembikinan filem ketika zaman P. Ramlee,” kata Mamat ketika ditemui selepas majlis pelancaran filem KMBM di ibukota, baru-baru ini.

Paling mencabar, kata Mamat ialah memastikan filem itu kuat dari segi pemilihan pelakon, skrip serta adunannya.

“Saya mahu menarik minat penonton menyaksikan filem ini. Saya ingin membawa mereka ke pawagam, menonton sebuah filem era 50-an yang dibikin pada zaman sekarang,” ulasnya.

Selain itu katanya, set penggambaran yang banyak dilakukan di studio juga antara perbezaan yang ditampilkan dalam filem ini berbanding filem terdahulu.

“Kami jalani pengambaran di studio yang kami bina sendiri setnya termasuk kawasan gua dan gerabak kereta api. Pembikinan filem ini lebih teliti berbanding filem berwarna,” ujarnya.

Menyingkap seketika idea pembikinan filem KMBM, kata Mamat Khalid, ia sebenarnya dihasilkan khusus untuk arwah Hani Mohsin.

Kata Mamat Khalid: “Abang dah bertahun-tahun berfikir untuk buat filem macam ini. Dan abang pernah berbincang dengan arwah. Cadangnya dulu nak buat sebuah filem ala-ala klasik yang sesuai untuk dia (Hani Mohsin) buat come back. Macam filem Jimmy Asmara. Hani memang sesuai dengan corak filem sebegitu. Tapi nak buat macam mana beliau pergi sebelum filem ini sempat direalisasikan. Namun watak utamanya Saleh, memang khas untuk arwah. Malah judul filem ini juga abang terima daripada kiriman SMS terakhir arwah.”

Katanya lagi, filem yang menelan bajet RM1.4 juta itu dihasilkan khusus sebagai menghargai allahyarham Hani Mohsin serta pelakon-pelakon generasi terdahulu.

“Itulah sahaja cara penghargaan yang dapat saya sampaikan kepada mereka semua,” kata Mamat.

Rosyam terharu bawa watak Saleh

Menurut Rosyam Nor, pertama kali menerima skrip filem ini, dia menyangka watak Saleh yang diberikan kepadanya hanya sebuah watak yang mudah.

“Mula-mula saya fikir, biasalah watak komedi. Dulu pun saya pernah bawa watak yang macam itu. Tapi rupanya Mamat Khalid mahu saya bawa watak yang lain daripada biasa. Dia betul-betul nak saya lakonkan seperti pelakon terdahulu. Dari segi pertuturan dialog taklah susah sangat tapi cara penyampaian itu lebih sukar,” kata Rosyam.

Malah katanya, dia telah memberikan yang terbaik untuk menjayakan watak Saleh sebagai tanda terima kasih dan penghargaan kepada arwah Hani Mohsin yang sepatutnya melakonkan watak tersebut.

*** Teringat kan arwah Hani Mohsin ketika menonton Jimi Asmara di TV1 3 minggu lepas. Sesungguhnya arwah hanyut ketika melakonkan watak Jimi. Wataknya hidup, cuma agak kekok sikit ketika menari,lebih-lebih lagi aksi beliau ketika mengalunkan lagu hip-hip horey, hip-hip horey bergembira. Kak Teh tergelak-gelak tengok Azhar Sulaiman menari, lengok tubuhnya mengikut irama pop yeah yeah, hidup, dengan jambul tingginya. Adus, asyik sekali tengok watak kedua-duanya. Tak ketinggalan juga pendokong watak lain dlm Jimi Asmara.

All About Leonardo DiCaprio

TIMELINE
2006




Early in 2006 Leonado started filming "Blood Diamond". Although it is about diamonds in Sierra Leone in the 1990's, the actual filming took place in Mozambique and South Africa.

"Blood Diamond" opened shortly after the critically acclaimed film "The Departed". Both films garnered Leonardo some of the best reviews of his career.

The Hollywood Foreign Press Association honored him with two nominations for Best Leading Actor in a Drama for both films, it is an historic first that an actor received 2 leading nominations in the same year. See all the awards and nominations for "The Departed" and for "Blood Diamond" at IMBD.

In the meantime Leonardo continued working on his environmental documentary "The 11th Hour" which he produced, co-wrote and partly narrated on screen. He also continued to be very active in his passion to protect our environment by contributing to environmental causes and by supporting political candidates who advocate for the protection of our planet. He made special public appearances to spread the word about the dangers of global warming, one being The Oprah Winfrey Show.

2005

The first half of 2005 was devoted to "The Aviator", which received 5 Academy Awards, and a Best Actor nomination for Leonardo's performance as Howard Hughes. The Hollywood Foreign Press awarded Leonardo a Golden Globe for Outstanding Performance by an Actor in a Drama. See all the awards and nominations for "The Aviator".

The second half of the year was devoted to filming "The Departed", his third collaboration with director Martin Scorsese.

Leonardo created his second spoken word piece entitled "Water Planet".

The Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation and Tree Media Group began production on "11th Hour", a feature-length documentary about the human impact on our planet which will open in early 2007.

2004

In order to offer visitors more information and resources, Leonardo's Eco-site was re-designed and launched early this year.
Leonardo joined the boards of both NRDC and Global Green USA in 2004.
Like most Americans in 2004, Leonardo concentrated on one of the most important presidential elections in our history. Along with Norman Lear's campaign "Declare Yourself", he criss-crossed the U.S.A., visited college campuses and encouraged young people to register to vote.
He then criss-crossed half the world to attend the premieres of his film "The Aviator", in which he not only starred but also served as an executive producer.
On October 18th the Hollywood Film Festival honored Annette Bening and Leonardo with the Actor of the Year Award respectively.
Then, on December 9th, Global Green USA and Leonardo organized a private screening of "The Aviator"at the world famous Grauman's Chinese Theatre in Hollywood. More than a thousand fans and friends attended the event.




Leonardo completed principal photography on "The Aviator", a biopic about Howard Hughes, directed by Martin Scorsese, scheduled to open Christmas 2004. The Russian International Film Festival honored Leonardo with the Tower Award for Contributions to International Cinema. Leonardo's environmental work continued with a spoken word piece entitled "Global Warning". He received the Environmental Leadership Award from Global Green USA. The Natural Resources Defense Council opened a new green building, featuring the Leonardo DiCaprio e-Activism Computer Zone.



Leonardo had leading roles in "Gangs Of New York", directed by Martin Scorsese, and "Catch Me If You Can", directed by Steven Spielberg. Both films were released concurrently towards the end of the year. For his performance as con-man Frank Abagnale, Jr., he received his third Golden Globe nomination from the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. His Foundation received the Martin Litton Environmental Warrior Award from Environment Now. In August, he joined Global Green USA, in urging our leaders to attend the Earth Summit in South Africa.


2000


Aside from film acting, Leo's lifelong passion for environmental awareness began to play a big role in his life. Finally in an influential position to make a difference in the name of the planet, he was invited to chair Earth Day 2000. In a special on the deterioration of the ozone level, he also interviewed President Bill Clinton. LeonardoDiCaprio.org is now devoted to helping the environment on a worldwide level.



In 1999, Leonardo filmed Danny Boyle's screen adaptation of the best selling novel "The Beach" by Alex Garland. The film was shot entirely on location in Thailand and marked Leonardo's first starring role since Titanic. Once he got back to the States, he started mulling for a new project and joined with one of his most admired directors, Martin Scorsese.

1998



Leonardo starred in "The Man in the Iron Mask" which shot in France with Gerard Depardieu, Gabriel Byrne, Jeremy Irons and John Malkovich. Owning the #1 position on the top ten box office list for the better part of the first half of 1998 with "Titanic," he virtually knocked himself out of the top spot with "The Man in the Iron Mask."



Legendary director Woody Allen cast Leonardo in his typically untitled "Fall Project," ultimately titled "Celebrity," in which he received highly favorable reviews for his satirical work as a young, out of control movie star.





Growing up on the eastside of Los Angeles, Leonardo wanted to give back to his community, and he donated a room full of computers and equipment to the new Los Feliz Library, built on the site of his childhood home. There are commemorative placards and curious fans are welcome at the library.

1996

In late 1996, Leonardo signed on to star in James Cameron's "Titanic." He was hesitant at first. This wasn't the kind of film he had told himself he wanted to make. These initial misgivings ultimately gave way to Cameron's relentlessness and the story's thematic elements.



1995

1995 found Leonardo playing opposite Sharon Stone and Gene Hackman in "The Quick and the Dead", Sam Raimi's deliriously stylish meditation on the Old West. Later that same year, he starred in the adaptation of Jim Carroll's gritty autobiographical memoir, "The Basketball Diaries." He then went on to portray the doomed and deeply troubled pansexual poet, Arthur Rimbaud in Agnieszka Holland's film version of Christopher Hampton's play "Total Eclipse."



As one half of the star struck lovers in Australian director Baz Luhrmann's screen-adaptation of William Shakespeare's ultimate love story "Romeo and Juliet," Leonardo was paired with rising star Claire Danes in this strangely anachronistic, contemporary updating of the story, set in a neo-modern Verona Beach. He was also featured that same year as Meryl Streep's delinquent-to-the-point-of- criminal son in "Marvin's Room," another adaptation of a play. Sandwiched between the brilliant performances of Streep and Diane Keaton, Leonardo also had the opportunity to work again with Robert DeNiro, whose TriBeca Films produced the movie.





Swedish director Lasse Hallstrom cast Leonardo in the role of Arnie for the critically acclaimed film "What's Eating Gilbert Grape" His performance was extraordinary and earned him an Academy Award Nomination for Best Supporting Actor in 1994 at the age of nineteen.

1992


By this time, our young actor had run the gamut of T.V and commercial acting and wanted to pursue film acting. The break came in 1992 when Michael Caton-Jones cast Leonardo in the much sought after role of Tobias Wolff in his big-screen adaptation of Wolff's best selling novel "This Boy's Life." Co-staring alongside Robert DeNiro and Ellen Barkin, "This Boy's Life," continues to be one of Leo's favorite acting experiences.





Realizing any actor needs a film credit under his belt for future big screen work, Leonardo was cast in the B-grade feature, "Critters III." Before the year was out, he was invited to join the cast of the hit ABC sitcom, "Growing Pains" playing the role of Luke, a troubled homeless boy taken in by the Seavers.

1988

Always drawn towards performing, Leonardo started auditioning for parts in 1988, at the age of fourteen and appeared in a series of commercials and educational films. From that point he navigated a gradual hill up the acting chain. From bit parts on soap operas, to bubble gum commercials, the first "regular" gig was on the series "Parenthood," (which lasted all of three episodes).


1974


Leonardo was born in Hollywood, California on November 11, 1974. He attended Seeds University Elementary School at UCLA where he also took summer courses in performance art before moving on to the Center for Enriched Studies in Los Angeles. After CES, the next step was to enroll at John Marshall High School in the Los Feliz area of Los Angeles. Having been exposed to the world of underground art from an early age, Leonardo was instilled with a sense that creativity was a hugely important thing. Early on, he thought of becoming an actor.

Leonardo DiCaprio Talks About "Blood Diamond"

Leonardo DiCaprio’s in the enviable position of possibly competing against himself for Best Actor honors this year. DiCaprio earned high praise for his leading role in Martin Scorsese’s The Departed, and reviews of his performance in Blood Diamond are equally as positive.

Blood Diamond was directed by Edward Zwick and stars DiCaprio as an ex-mercenary who now makes his living trading diamonds for arms.

The Appeal of Blood Diamond: “First off on the script, it was such a powerful character. It was such a powerful storyline and that’s what you look for first. I wasn’t personally going out seeking films with a social and political message, just to do it for the sake of doing it.

It has to have an entertainment value. It has to be a good movie and it has to convey a message without the audience feeling they are being preached to, and I really felt this script accomplished that.

To me, it was very representative of a huge issue in the world today of corporate responsibility and what these corporations do, and certainly Africa has been a prime target for it - all the way to gold and rubber and all kinds of other natural resources. And here was this character that was exploiting others that were less fortunate than him, dealing in the black market and not really being conscious of the world he lives in. I just felt it was a really powerful character.

…It was really Ed Zwick and Marshall [Herskovitz] who learned about the diamond trade specifically and brought the political aspects into this story, but in a way that I didn’t feel was preachy. In a way that I felt was authentic. So, of course, it’s always great to do a movie that you find is entertaining, but also can give some sort of political or social message and I felt this movie did that.”

Working on the Accent: DiCaprio captured the South African accent by spending a lot of time with the locals. DiCaprio said, “…Drinking beers with them, hearing their stories - a lot of guys from the South African military. I got to hang out with this guy [who was] really a sort of military expert and just listening to them talk. And, of course, I had an accent coach and he was there guiding me through it. But we had conversations with these people, listening to their stories, [and] made them say sentences over and over again. That’s just the kind of thing you do.

I wanted to definitely go to Africa early, because that whole area was completely alien to me. I had never really spent any time in Africa, let alone [with] a white South African man and their stories and accents. It was completely alien when I first heard of the film. It was about going there.”

Preparing for Blood Diamond: “There was a lot of military training too and we had a great stunt team too. We did a lot of faux military activities of hunting in the bush and tracking in the bush, what it was like to track in the bush. Hanging out with a lot of guys in the South African army. And really, that was really the tough stuff – getting that military background, because they are some of the best trained guys in the entire world as far as tracking is concerned and living in the bush. I didn’t go out and live in the bush for a week or even a day, but it was a matter of doing these exercises with them.

There is a certain amount you can get from books. You need to speak with the real people and ask specific questions that affect your character. Questions you have about your character, otherwise you’d be skimming through hundreds of books trying to get that specific answer.

What I was really overwhelmed with by Africa was its tremendous natural beauty. I got to go to some pretty amazing places. Every other weekend we got a day or two off and [could] go on a safari or see the natural wonders of Africa. If anyone gets the opportunity to go there, it’s something you have to do in your lifetime.”

What Did Leonardo DiCaprio Take Away From This Experience?: “You know, certainly paying a character like this who was taking advantage of the poverty around him and taking advantage of the continent, it posed for a lot of…what’s the word? It was uncomfortable as an actor to portray this man in front of an African crew in locations like Mozambique where there was a tremendous amount of poverty. Mozambique is a country that is having an economic resurgence, but 4 out of 10 people supposedly have HIV or AIDS. It’s an astounding [number].

What I was left with after spending time with Africa, and this is not at all to sound trivial, but it really was the power of the human spirit there. The fact that these people have been through so much. They have been in a civil war for 30 years, the poverty rate, but literally, people were still dancing in the streets. The joy, the energy, the happiness they exuded to everyone was unbelievable. It made me come back home and sort of not want to listen to anyone’s problems. I don’t want to hear what we as Americans have to deal with. When you are immersed in a place like that for six months and you see the extreme levels of what people have to deal with there, yet they are able to keep a positive attitude. You just don’t want to hear people’s problems out here anymore.”

Working with Djimon Hounsou: DiCaprio had nothing but praise for Hounsou’s work on Blood Diamond. “I mean, his character is really is the heart and soul of the movie, you know? The story of a man trying to find his son,” said DiCaprio, “and he embodied this character and the word is electrifying, the intensity that he gives in his performance. What can I say? He and I were kind of alone on set and it was me and him, and there is no other actor who could have given this performance. He is astounding in this movie and the energy and the intensity that you get off him as an actor, you get to play off each other every day. He is quite a brilliant actor.”

Injuries on the Set of Blood Diamond: “Djimon got banged up; I hurt my knee. There are some of the sequences in this movie that Ed set up, a full week of squibs and diving behind cars. …I’ve never been in an action sequence that was that well choreographed.”


Leonardo DiCaprio’s Knowledge of the Diamond Industry Before Shooting the Film: “I think I was like anybody else. I had heard whispers of it, but until I got there and until I started to do the research I didn’t really quite understand the immense impact, certainly on Sierra Leone and other places in Africa. I had heard, certainly, the Kanye West song for example and bits of it in conversation, but it wasn’t until I really got to Africa where I heard the firsthand accounts and started to read the books and learn about it that I really learned what was really going on. What really had happened.”

Al-Fatihah

Pelakon, pengacara dan penerbit drama, Hani Mohsin Hanafi, meninggal dunia akibat diserang sakit jantung di Lapangan Terbang Antarabangsa Kuala Lumpur (KLIA), Sepang semalam.

Hani Mohsin, 41, berasal dari Perlis, rebah di Terminal Penerbangan Tambang Murah (LCCT) lapangan terbang itu, kira-kira jam 10 pagi selepas mendaftar untuk menaiki pesawat ke Alor Star.

Allahyarham dan anaknya, Hani Karmila, 10, yang tiba di kaunter pemeriksaan masuk pada jam 9.50 pagi adalah penumpang terakhir untuk menaiki pesawat yang dijangka berlepas jam 10.20 pagi.

Yasin Hamid, Penerbit Eksekutif Imagine Pictures, syarikat penerbitan yang diusahakan Allahyarham, berkata ketika kejadian Hani Mohsin baru selesai membuat pendaftaran masuk untuk menaiki pesawat.

Dua beranak itu bercadang mengunjungi sanak saudara mereka di Kangar dalam perjalanan bercuti di Langkawi.

Difahamkan, Hani Mohsin, yang tiba di LCCT bersama anaknya dengan membawa hanya satu beg galas kira-kira jam 9.40 pagi, rebah sebaik mendapat pas berlepas daripada petugas di kaunter 30 terminal itu, 10 minit kemudian.

Beliau kemudian diberi bantuan pernafasan sebelum dikejarkan petugas LCCT ke Pusat Perubatan Pusrawi KLIA berhampiran terminal kargo, satu kilometer dari situ.

Bagaimanapun, doktor mengesahkan beliau meninggal dunia setibanya di situ. Jenazahnya dihantar ke Hospital Serdang untuk bedah siasat sebelum dibawa ke rumahnya di Taman Kelab Ukay, Bukit Antarabangsa, Hulu Klang.

Bekas isteri Allahyarham, Datin Seri Tiara Jacquelina, ketika ditemui di Hospital Serdang, berkata beliau menerima panggilan telefon daripada anaknya pada jam 10 pagi memaklumkan bapanya pengsan.

Sambil menyifatkan Hani Mohsin seorang yang penyayang terutama terhadap anaknya, Tiara berkata, Allahyarham tidak pernah memberitahu dia menghidap penyakit jantung.

Jenazah dikebumikan di tanah perkuburan Islam berhampiran Masjid Al-Redzwan, Hulu Klang, bersebelahan kubur ibunya, Hasni Bakar, yang meninggal dunia pada Mei 2004.

DEMI persahabatan yang sekian lama terjalin, rakan-rakan Allahyarham Hani Mohsin Hanafi yang sama menuntut di Kolej Melayu Kuala Kangsar (MCKK) sekitar 1978-1980 mengambil inisiatif mengadakan majlis tahlil buat arwah di kediamannya di Bukit Antarabangsa.

Bermula malam kelmarin, majlis kenduri tahlil yang dirancang selama tiga malam berturut-turut itu diadakan selepas solat Isyak dengan dihadiri 200 tetamu jemputan serta rombongan anak yatim dari Rumah Bakti Hulu Klang.

Seorang rakan arwah dari MCKK, Azmi Massoh berkata, insiatif mengadakan majlis tahlil itu dilakukan kerana menyedari arwah seorang anak tunggal serta yatim piatu.

“Memang dia punya sanak-saudara di sebelah ibu dan bapanya tetapi apa yang kami tahu kebanyakannya menetap di Perlis.

“Maka sebab itulah kami tampil untuk mengadakan majlis kenduri ini. Awalnya kami mahu mengadakan majlis tahlil ini di surau yang terletak berdekatan saja.

“Namun, selepas mendapat keizinan daripada ibu saudaranya serta bekas isterinya Datin Seri Tiara Jacquelina, akhirnya majlis tahlil ini dibuat di rumah arwah.

“Kita juga memang bercadang membuat tahlil ini selama tiga malam berturut-turut dan malam ini adalah malam terakhir.

“Harap-harap, lebih ramai lagi rakan dari MCKK akan datang menghadiri majlis tahlil arwah ini,” katanya.

Majlis tahlil itu turut menghimpunkan saudara-mara arwah yang berada di Perlis.

Anak arwah, Hani Karmila yang ditemani bapa tirinya, Datuk Seri Effendi Norwawi turut kelihatan.

Dia mula nampak begitu tenang dan bersemangat berbanding beberapa hari dulu, malah kelihatan seronok berbual bersama sepupunya yang datang dari Perlis.

Sesekali dia mendakap nenek saudaranya, Hasnu Bakar, 60, yang sebelum ini dilaporkan sudah menyediakan masakan kari ketam dan sambal sotong sebagai juadah makan tengah hari buat arwah.

Wajah Hasnu pula nampak sayu tatkala Karmila berbuat begitu. Mungkin, kasihan memikirkan nasib si anak kecil itu yang sudah tidak berbapa pada usia yang masih muda.

“Tak sangka Mohsin sudah tiada. Hanya inilah satu-satunya peninggalan Mohsin,” katanya sambil mengusap-ngusap kepala Karmila.

Karmila memang seorang anak yang bijak, peramah dan mudah mesra kepada sesiapa termasuk dengan aktres Azizah Mahzan yang selama ini memang cukup rapat dengan arwah bapanya.

Malah, dia turut mendakap erat Azizah sambil membiarkan wanita itu membelai serta menciumnya berkali-kali.

“Saya tidak sanggup sebenarnya hendak melihat rumah ini. Banyak sebenarnya kenangan arwah bersama saya di rumah ini.

“Cuba tengok di dinding luar rumah ini. Tahu tak siapa yang mengecatnya? Saya dan arwahlah yang punya kerja.

“Tapi, kebanyakannya arwah yang melakukannya sendiri dan saya pula menjadi tukang tengok. Untuk menghasilkan bahagian itu, memaksa kami menggunakan 13 warna,” katanya dengan suara terharu.

Selain Azizah Mahzan, pengarah Mat London juga turut kelihatan di majlis tahlil itu.

Hanya mereka berdua saja yang ada di kalangan rakan perjuangan seni yang hadir. Ke mana pula perginya yang lain-lain?

My dear friend-Hani Mohsin

My dear friend, Hani Mohsin Hanafi...
100 magnify

"Bro! engkau nak masuk Roda Impian tak?", Hani Mohsin called me last month out of the blue.

"Hari tu aku siap dah hantar surat dengan profile aku dah. Tak masuk-masuk pun Roda Impian. Tak payah la bro!", I answered.

"Sorry la... hari tu aku bagi at the wrong person la. This time I help you. Give me again your particulars.... sementara aku ada kat sini, aku tolong engkau masuk Roda Impian", Mohsin answered.

"Nanti la aku hantar kat engkau", I said.

...

Yesterday (25/07/06) I received a call.... Mohsin died of heart attack. He was 41.

Innalillahi wa inna ilaihi ro ji'un....

I went to his house yesterday afternoon. Bila jenazah dia sampai, I look at him. He was so handsome. He was more handsome than when he was alive. Ever.

Mohsin may not be someone that everyone can understand. He can have a quick temper as well. But one thing I know for sure, he is a very nice man, soft hearted deep inside, and loves his daughter sooooo very very much!

Ever since I knew him in .... 2001? ( I can't remember).... he never failed to call me every few months and ask me how are things going and etc. He was my roomate masa we did the 'Merdeka! Merdeka! Merdeka!' play kat Istana Budaya dulu. Ever since, he never failed to touch base with me and I know for sure, that if I was in any kind of trouble, he will be there to help me. That is just Hani Mohsin.... the big brother.

He came to my Wajah Lumpur play at Matic last September on the final night. I said thanks to him for coming. And he said that he wouldn't miss my play for the world, no matter how busy he was. I really appreciate that of him. I really do...

May Allah shower him with His blessings and forgiveness....

May Mohsin be placed in heaven with al the righteous....

Maaf Yang Terakhir Daripada Hani Mohsin

25 Julai, 2006 22:53 PM

Oleh Syed Azwan Syed Ali

KUALA LUMPUR, 25 Julai (Bernama) -- Dunia hiburan tempatan hari ini gempar dengan berita pemergian pelakon, penerbit dan hos program TV, Hani Mohsin yang meninggal dunia akibat diserang sakit jantung di Lapangan Terbang Antarabangsa Kuala Lumpur (KLIA) di Sepang di sini.

Kematian Hani, 41, mengejutkan ramai pihak.

Berita kematiannya tersebar dengan cepat ekoran kemajuan teknologi khidmat pesanan ringkas (SMS) sehingga ke benua Eropah, malah, Bernama menerima SMS dari seorang kenalan di United Kingdom yang ingin tahu akan kesahihan berita itu.

Bagi Presiden FDAM, Dr Mahadi J. Murat pemergian Hani Mohsin itu menjawab kelakuan aneh personaliti TV itu Isnin yang secara spontan memohon berbanyak maaf kepada beliau kerana tidak dapat menjadi pengacara bagi program anjuran persatuan itu akhir bulan ini.

Dilahirkan di Kangar, Perlis, pada 18 Jun 1965, Hani Mohsin, atau nama sebenarnya Hani Mohsin Mohd Hanafi merupakan seorang yang sentiasa komited kepada karier dan aktiviti yang disertai.

"Allahyarham memang seorang yang komited kepada persatuan. Beliau akan menelefon saya sekiranya beliau tidak dapat hadir ke mesyuarat atau aktiviti yang dijalankan FDAM," kata Dr Mahadi kepada Bernama di sini.

"Cuma cara dia memohon maaf kerana tidak dapat jadi pengacara program dialog budaya anjuran FDAM Ahad ini agak pelik sikit. Saya tak sangka itu maafnya yang terakhir," katanya lagi. Hani adalah Exco Persatuan Sutradara Malaysia (FDAM) sejak Julai 2005.

Anak tunggal kepada pasangan Mohd Hanafi Mohd Yunus dan Hasni Bakar (kedua- dua ibu bapanya telah meninggal) itu cukup dikenali sebagai hos program TV, Roda Impian, yang segak dan cukup diminati ramai.

Bagi kebanyakan orang Allahyarham dilihat sebagai seorang pelakon yang bermula dari bawah dan akhirnya menjadi seorang penerbit melalui penubuhan syarikat penerbitan, Imagines Pictures Sdn Bhd pada 2002.

Bekas isteri Allahyarham yang juga penerbit dan pelakon terkenal, Datin Seri Tiara Jacquelina berkata beliau amat terkilan dengan pemergian Hani Mohsin yang disifatkannya terlalu cepat kerana usianya masih muda.

Ketika melawat jenazah Hani di bilik mayat Hospital Serdang, Tiara ditemani suami yang juga Menteri di Jabatan Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Effendi Norwawi.

Hani dan Tiara telah bercerai pada 1998 dan mereka mempunyai seorang anak perempuan, Hani Karmila, 10, yang memaklumkan mengenai kematian ayahnya kepada ibunya hari Selasa.

Hani disahkan meninggal dunia pada pukul 10 pagi akibat diserang sakit jantung oleh Hospital Serdang selepas beliau dibawa dari Klinik Pusrawi di Terminal Penerbangan Tambang Murah (LCC) di KLIA.

Allaryarham dikatakan rebah di LCC itu ketika sedang menunggu untuk menaiki pesawat ke Alor Setar sebelum ke Langkawi. Beliau difahamkam merancang untuk membawa Karmila bercuti bersama keluarga di Taman Sena Indah di Perlis.

Antara filem lakonan Allahyarham ialah Embun (2002), Spinning gasing (2000), Merah (1997), Scoop (1996), Ringgit Kasorrga (1995), Jimi Asmara (1995) dan filem terbitan Hollywood, Beyond Rangoon (bersama-sama Tiara) pada 1995.

Jenazah Allahyarham telah dibawa pulang ke rumahnya di No 9, Jalan Kelab Ukay, Taman Kelab Ukay, Bukit Antarabangsa sebelum disembahyangkan di Masjid Mukim Hulu Kelang.

Jenazah dijangka akan dikebumikan bersebelahan dengan kubur arwah ibunya, Hasni Bakar, di Tanah Perkuburan Islam Hulu Kelang, selepas subuh Rabu.

Kehilangan Allahyarham akan tetap diingati masyarakat negara ini bukan sahaja sebagai seorang pelakon, penerbit dan pengacara juga sebagai seorang insan yang baik hati. Ini diakui sepupunya, Azriyati Mazlan, 28.

"Beliau sendiri pernah datang ke majlis konvokesyen saya. Hanya dia seorang sahaja yang sanggup datang manakala ibu bapa saya ketika itu sibuk tidak dapat hadir," kata pensyarah kolej swasta itu yang turut terkejut dengan pemergian Allahyarham setelah dihubungi saudara maranya pada pukul 10.45 pagi.

Belasungkawa Hani Mohsin 26/07/2006

Ketika mula menjejaki dunia seni di awal perjalanannya dulu, allahyarham Hani Mohsin Hanafi adalah seorang yang agak pemalu. Niatnya ketika itu hanya satu, untuk mencuba nasib dalam bidang lakonan. Filem-filem yang dilakonkannya pada awal pembabitannya telah membuat namanya melonjak menjadi hero No. 1 pada ketika itu.

Walaupun disanjung dan dipuja suatu ketika dulu, pelakon utama Jimi Asmara ini tidak pernah menganggap popularitinya hebat. Yang selalu tersemat dihatinya adalah laluan dan ranjau yang terpaksa dihadapi ketika dia mula ingin mencipta nama.

Pembabitannya dalam bidang seni diterima ramai. Jumlah drama yang dilakonkannya sudah tidak mampu untuk dibilang dengan jari, begitu juga dengan filem serta teater.

Pelakon yang berasal dari Perlis dan pernah terbabit dalam pembikinan filem terbitan Hollywood, Beyond Rangoon pada tahun 1995, tidak memikirkan soal populariti.

“Saya tidak suka mengejar publisiti. Yang penting dalam hidup saya ialah dua perkara iaitu kepuasan dan kewangan,” ujar graduan lepasan UiTM ini.
Bagi Mohsin, pengurusan yang betul adalah penting untuk membentuk karier seorang anak seni sepertinya.

Mungkin sifat semulajadinya yang merendah diri membuat beliau rasa tidak layak disamakan dengan pelakon-pelakon popular yang lain (Foto The Star)

Mungkin sebab itu juga, walaupun Mohsin sudah membintangi berpuluh drama dan lebih dari 10 buah filem, Mohsin tidak pernah menganggap dirinya popular atau sebaris pelakon-pelakon popular yang lain.

Mungkin sifat semulajadinya yang merendah diri membuat beliau rasa tidak layak disamakan dengan pelakon-pelakon popular yang lain. Di dalam setiap pertemuan, Mohsin akan selalu berkata pencapaiannya di dalam bidang seni bukanlah tinggi sangat.

“Saya bukanlah sepopular orang lain tetapi, alhamdulillah, saya juga tidak berada di bawah. Pencapaian saya sekadar berada di peringkat yang biasa sahaja,” Mohsin pernah berkata di satu pertemuan tidak lama dulu.

Duda tampan yang selalu membawa watak hero di dalam Operasi Cegah Jenayah (OCJ), Hanny, Ringgit Kasorrga, Beyond Rangoon, Jimi Asmara, Scoop, Embun, Pontianak, Histeria, Spinning Gasing dan Merah, adalah seorang pelakon yang cukup berbakat.

Walaupun dianugerahkan dengan wajah klasik dan bakat yang besar, perjalanan seninya tidak serancak yang dia harapkan.

Tidak seperti pelakon lain, nama Hani Mohsin tidak pernah dijulang dalam festival atau pertandingan yang memberi penghormatan kepada golongan seni sepertinya. Namun Mohsin tidak kecewa.

“Cerita pasal saya memang kurang sebab saya mengaku tidak ada cerita yang menarik untuk dikongsi dengan orang ramai jika dibandingkan dengan artis lain,” Mohsin pernah meluahkan isi hatinya ketika ditanya kenapa dia agak dingin dengan para media.

Pernah juga Mohsin berkata, popularitinya sudah memadai.

“Sekadar nama dan rupa saya dikenali, itu sudah cukup. Yang penting saya perlu komited dan konsisten dalam kerjaya saya,” katanya lagi.

Dan itulah yang cuba dibuktikan oleh Mohsin di akhir usianya. Seorang yang dedikasi dan cukup kuat bekerja, Mohsin juga adalah penerbit, penulis skrip dan juga pelakon. Mohsin bekerja keras untuk kepuasan berkarya.

Dalam satu temuramah, beliau pernah menyatakan kecintaannya terhadap bidang seni melebihi segala-galanya, walaupun tidak menerima sebarang pengiktirafan.

Mohsin sering berkata tanggungjawabnya sebagai pelakon masih banyak yang belum disempurnakan. (Foto The Star)

“Biarlah saya tidak menerima sebarang anugerah sekalipun, itu bukan persoalan yang terus membelenggu atau menyebabkan hidup saya kucar-kacir.

“Jika ada anugerah, ia sebagai bonus buat saya. Jangan risau dan bimbang saya tidak pernah berkecil hati. Barangkali, bukan rezeki saya lagi. Insya-Allah pada masa depan siapa tahu tuah akan menyebelahi saya pula,” ujarnya.

Mohsin sering berkata tanggungjawabnya sebagai pelakon masih banyak yang belum disempurnakan. Begitu juga bidang pengarahan diceburi menuntutnya bekerja lebih keras.

Anak tunggal yang dilahirkan pada tahun 1963 ini tidak pernah puas dengan segala hasil kerjanya. Tetapi dia bukan seorang tahu rasa kecewa. Malah Mohsin seorang yang senantiasa bersyukur atas segala yang telah dipinjamkan kepadanya.

Dan begitulah suratan takdir apabila Allah menjemputnya. Ayah tersayang kepada satu-satu anaknya Hani Karmila, 9 tahun telah diserang sakit jantung ketika ingin menghabiskan percutian dengan Karmila pada jam 9.30 pagi di Terminal Air Asia. Di situlah Mohsin rebah dan menghembuskan nafasnya yang terakhir.

Jenazahnya telah dibawa ke Hospital Serdang untuk bedah siasat sebelum di bawa ke rumahnya di No. 9, Jalan Kelab Ukay, Bukit Antarabangsa.

Lakonan Mohsin dalam Villa Cinta Daddy

DALILAH IBRAHIM was in Seoul with the cast and production crew for the shooting of Malay drama Villa Cinta Daddy last month.

When you tune in to Villa Cinta Daddy, you will get to see many pretty scenes shot in South Korea, and complete with snow too.

Eurofine Productions, which produced the drama series, picked South Korea instead of the usual European countries to give viewers a new experience.

Lovebirds Juita (Deanna Yusof) and Kamal (Hani Mohsin) in a scene from the telemovie Villa Cinta Daddy.

The production crew of five and three of its cast – Deanna Yusof, Hani Mohsin and Mohd Frank Lewis – braved the freezing temperature of -10°C to shoot some of the scenes.

Among the interesting sites featured in the series were Seoul’s metropolitan city and tourist attractions like the Gyeongbokgung Palace, the famous Namdaemun night market and the Jisan Forest and Ski Resort.

“The choice of place was between Cardiff in Britain and Seoul. Incidentally, Eurofine has business partners in both cities.

“However, we settled for Seoul to break away from the European locations,” said Eurofine Production’s project manager Naharriah Mohammed who led the team to Seoul in early January.

Directed by Adam Hamid, Villa Cinta Daddy centres on businessman Amir Asyraf (Mustafa Kamal) who needs to convince his own father and son that his wealth is not derived from corruption and cronyism.

Juita (Deanna Yusof), who owns a television licence but is facing financial problems, seeks Amir’s financial support.

One of the directors in Amir’s company, Kamal (Hani Mohsin), is against the idea of investing in Juita’s company. He was Juita’s love interest.

The story goes that Kamal and Juita go to Seoul to meet Peter Kim (Lewis), a Korean business partner.

Other cast members include Zizie Ezzette, Datin Rosnani Jami, Annahita Bakavoli and Aida Radzwill

Although it’s not their first time working together, Hani and Deanna were convincing as a couple. They first worked together in Shuhaimi Baba’s Ringgit Ka Sorga in which Hani played Deanna’s brother.

“Being comfortable with your co-actors really helps in a production,” said Hani.

Hani, who has been playing villain roles of late, said he is aware of the public’s negative perception of him. Relating an incident, Hani said that some villagers actually gave him the cold shoulder after watching him beat up a woman in a drama.

“However, playing the villain is actually more challenging because you are playing the opposite of your real self,” he said.

Deanna, on the other hand, has been more selective of her roles and lamented that she had turned down many offers due to weak scripts.

“I received some good scripts but they did not materialise due to lack of financial support,” she said.

Her last Malaysian movie was Ringgit Ka Sorga and although she had acted in two French movies – Passeurs d’enfant (2002) and Un Homme en Colére (1999) – she is better known as the face of SKII skin care products.

Villa Cinta Daddy is aired in TV3’s Samarinda slot from Tuesdays to Thursdays at 10.30pm. The series concludes at the end of March.

Mohsin , Eja & Roda Impian

Eja

Dengan pengacara dan set penggambaran terbaru, Roda Impian Musim Lapan diharap dapat menambat perhatian penonton setia siri game show itu di negara ini. Ia masih mengekalkan Siti Shahrizah atau Eja sebagai pengacara bersamanya tetapi kemunculan Hani Mohsin sebagai hos utama diyakini memberi nafas baru.

Jika bersama Halim Othman, Eja cuma bercakap sepatah dua saja tetapi dengan Hani Mohsin dia diberi peluang lebih keletah. Rambut Eja juga pendek bagi menampakkan imej segar. Mohsin pula lebih banyak ketawa menjadikan game show paling lama disiarkan di Malaysia ini lebih mesra penonton.

Sewaktu menyaksikan rakaman Roda Impian Musim Lapan di Astro baru-baru ini, memang banyak perbezaan jika ingin dibandingkan antara Halim dan Mohsin sebagai pengacara. Bukan ingin menunjukkan siapa lebih baik, namun kedua-dua mereka mempunyai karisma tersendiri.

Tanpa yang lama, tentu tidak ada yang baru dan masing-masing mempunyai pendekatan tersendiri.

Dalam diam tak diam, sudah 50 episod siri Roda Impian Musim 8 berjaya dikendalikan Mohsin. Setiap hari, lima episod dirakamkan bermula dari pagi membawa ke petang. Cuma tinggal lima episod lagi bagi menyiapkan rakaman blok pertama yang keseluruhannya 55 episod sebelum krew Roda Impian berhenti rehat hampir tiga minggu sebelum meneruskan rakaman blok kedua pula.

Mohsin ketika ditemui berkata, dia kini sudah semakin biasa mengendalikan Roda Impian.

“Kalau mula-mula dulu saya agak kekok terutama apabila penerbit jerit cut! Yang susahnya rancangan ini dirakamkan secara terus. Banyak cutting point yang saya kena ingat, misalnya bila untuk berhenti rehat bagi memberi laluan kepada iklan, hadiah, markah dan macam-macam lagi,” katanya.

Bagaimanapun, Mohsin bertuah kerana tenaga produksi Roda Impian banyak membantunya.

“Sebelum masuk studio rakaman, Mohsin perlu menjalani latihan intensif selama dua minggu. Waktu Halim dulu, latihannya memakan masa enam bulan tapi dengan Mohsin, dia kena ragging - latihannya memang padat bermula jam 9 pagi hingga 6 petang,” kata penerbit Roda Impian, Sofia Akzan.

Sofia berkata, impak rancangan ini banyak bergantung pada Mohsin dan juga Eja terutama pada awal dan penutup rancangan.

“Mereka kena fikir sendiri apa yang ingin dicakapkan. Musim ini, kami beri peluang kepada Eja untuk lebih banyak bercakap,” katanya.

Mohsin berkata lagi, dengan tempoh rehat yang singkat bagi setiap episod rakaman, dia perlu berfikir pantas.

“Masa rehat 10 minit itulah saya gunakan sepenuhnya untuk tukar baju, betul mekap dan waktu itu juga saya dan Eja akan berbincang apa yang ingin dicakapkan. Tapi Eja banyak membantu dan saya senang bekerja dengannya,” ujar aktor filem Jimi Asmara itu.

Mohsin berkata, selain memperkenalkan kategori baru untuk peserta selesaikan, dia juga menerangkan maksud perkataan-perkataan klasik yang jarang disebut untuk pengetahuan bersama.

Antara kategori baru yang diperkenalkan adalah Atlit & Sukan, Artis & Karektor, Pemimpin & Negara selain petak baru yang disediakan bersama bagi membolehkan peserta memilih RM500 bagi nilai petak di atas atau petak di bawah dengan nilai berbeza yang menjangkau ribuan ringgit.

Mengenai set penggambaran pula, jika dulu warna hijau banyak digunakan kini settingnya memilih warna unggu lembut (lavender) dan emas bagi menggambarkan konsep millenium. Ia turut menerapkan unsur etnik dan artistik masyarakat Melayu dengan adanya ukiran kerawang.

Yang lucunya, apabila seorang peserta meminta huruf S untuk Serina, Mohsin nyata tidak gelabah. Malah senyumnya panjang dan pantas memintas!
