Born To Shine
MEN'S FOLIO Malaysia|May 2023
The beauty of life is the concept of destiny. For some, that journey takes them to faroff destinations while for others, their true calling may bring them back to the comfort of their hometown. But for a select few, the spotlight is their destiny, and they were born to shine.

Starry Eyed Wonder: Aniq Suhair

We look at stars on our tv screen and we wonder how they are more than an idea but as a person, Aniq Suhair is a diamond that is not found but discovered. As a celebrity, he exudes a quiet confidence that draws you in, leaving you wanting more. But who is Aniq Suhair really? The public perceives him as an introverted man with a charming smile, a little shy but very cool. The characters he portrays on screen seem to merge with his own personality, blurring the line between reality and fiction. But behind the enigma lies a man waiting to be discovered. With every role he takes on, Aniq reveals a new layer of himself, making him a star that we can't help but watch with starry-eyed wonder. In this article, we delve deeper into the persona of this captivating star, exploring the questions that lie at the heart of Aniq Suhair's sugar sudoku.

Aniq, do you think we’ll figure you out by the end of this interview? 

You can try your best.

Bet, how about we start off slow with a reflection of who you are and who you were. How would you describe your authentic self, the Aniq Suhair behind the scenes?

Oh who I was, I would say I was a very playful kid and I actually still am. People and strangers portray me as this sort of person who would rather show than tell but I always have so much to say. I do confess to being an introvert more than half of the time, only because I’m not comfortable enough. Once you get to know me I'm so much fun, you can tell right?

I can only agree with you when we’re half through the interview. As someone who is pretty closed off, it must be hard for you to adjust with the entertainment industry that requires you to be loud to be noticed. Being a movie star isn’t really an ideal career for an introvert.
