Syafiq Kyle, one of the hardest working actors in showbiz, is bold, determined and definitely not wasting any time.
Seven years ago, a 19-year-old Syafiq Kyle participated in Hero Remaja. That was when he got his first taste of serious acting, ultimately walking away as the first runner-up (he lost the top spot to Fattah Amin). Syafiq admits that it was challenging competing against actors with more experience. Subsequently, he was only offered minor roles in dramas – but instead of raising the white flag – he took them on as opportunities to fine tune his craft. Fast-forward to today, the challenge for Syafiq is to find a good script. “You can be the best actor, but that doesn’t mean anything if you don’t have a good script to showcase your talent,” he says. “This is why I love Nur so much; I love how the director [Shahrulezad Mohameddin] is able to find a way to create a huge impact on the audience with a simple storyline.” At the end of the day, work satisfaction isn’t demarcated by whether it meets your expectation, but also that of your fans.
What is the importance of time in your life?
It is very important. I try to balance my personal life and my work schedule properly a week in advance; in between, I try to squeeze in things I like to do such as exercise. I prioritise them according to how important and urgent each task is. Besides that, I also have a monthly schedule prepared by my manager.
What are your secrets to keeping up with your busy schedule?
