In 2002, Ada Apa Dengan Cinta? propelled Nicholas Saputra and Dian Sastrowardoyo into movie stardom. The coming-of-age Indonesian film was a major box-office and critical success. Audiences were particularly captivated by how lead characters Cinta and Rangga (played by Dian and Nicholas respectively) overcame their animosity towards each other to become lovers.
Fourteen years later, the end proved to be the beginning of a new story as Dian and Nicholas reprise their iconic roles for Ada Apa Dengan Cinta 2 (AADC2). In this one, the story of Cinta and Rangga is set nine years after they last spoke to each other.
