Local actor Farid Kamil said getting fully into his role as Malaysia's 10th Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim in Indonesian director Viva Westi’s biopic, Anwar: The Untold Story, was difficult.

Wanting to play the part as flawlessly as possible, Farid spent his free time watching videos of Anwar and listening to his speeches.
