‘Busker’: A modern love story made with all the right tunes


"Hey, so how much coins did you use to make this machine run all night?"

The story for Busker is deceivingly simple. Boy meets girl. They become friends. Then girl helps boy to get back with his ex-girlfriend. Of course, the girl ends up falling in love with the boy. There is so much charm and humour in the way this story goes that you’re compelled to root for the girl to have a happy ending.

Directed by Syed Khairul Fariz, Busker is set in Johor Bahru where our boy, Adil (Hafeez Mikail) a student-musician, meets Vera (Daiyan Trisha) at university. They argue over a parking spot so it was not a good first encounter. Then thanks to a lecturer (cameo by XX Ray director Aziz M. Osman where he has all the best and corny lines), Adil and Vera have to pair up for an assignment. They learn to overcome their differences.
