Malaysian Actress Nabila Huda Clarifies Intimate Scene in New Drama
Market Impact
KUALA LUMPUR – Malaysian actress Nabila Huda, 41, has addressed public discussion surrounding an intimate scene with co-star Hun Haqeem in her latest drama Cela, emphasizing that all physical interactions were strictly professional and script-driven.
Speaking at the drama’s premiere, Nabila clarified that her on-screen persona as Datuk Anees differs from her real-life personality. “When portraying Cela, I am Datuk Anees, not Nabila Huda,” she said. “Every physical interaction in the scene had a purpose, context, and direction—it was not arbitrary.”
Nabila acknowledged initial nerves when working with Hun but noted that mutual trust and rehearsals helped establish boundaries. “At first, we were both awkward, but once we understood the scene and each other’s limits, it became a professional responsibility,” she explained. The chemistry between the characters, she added, stemmed from their evolving dynamic rather than mere physicality.
In Cela, Nabila plays a manipulative woman who loses control of her emotions. She described her character as a "manipulator" rather than a "groomer," highlighting power dynamics in the relationship. The 12-episode drama, directed by Feroz Kader, premiered on streaming platform Viu on August 20, 2026.
The cast also includes Datuk Seri Eizlan Yusuf, Zarif Ghazzi, Zain Saidin, Ellyza Azizi, and Lisdawati. Details on viewership or market impact were not yet available.
