Singaporean actor Tay Ping Hui had to apply rote learning when it came to memorising his lines, as well as his co-stars’ lines, for Malaysian heist movie Magik Rompak because he is not familiar with the Malay language.
During a joint video interview with director Adrian Teh with Chinese-language daily Lianhe Zaobao on Sept 11, the 54-year-old also admitted he was clueless during a recent promotional event that took place across the Causeway.
