Mertua Ngeri Kali
Between daughter-in-law and mother-in-law, a fierce showdown is coming to the big screen at the end of this year. No kidding—Im-a-gin-e’s latest film Mertua Ngeri Kali has just released its teaser poster along with two teaser trailers, offering the first-ever look at Bunda Corla on the silver screen.
This marks a special moment for the loyal fans of Bunda Corla, as they’ll finally get to witness her signature blunt, chaotic energy embodied in Donda, a Batak mother-in-law determined to turn her child’s household upside down!
Teaser Poster: Lovers’ Gaze vs. Mother-in-Law Stare
The newly released teaser poster features Raja (Dimas Anggara) and Andara (Naysilla Mirdad) gazing lovingly into each other’s eyes. But lurking behind them stands Donda (Bunda Corla), shooting a sharp, judgmental glare that looks ready to strike at any spark of happiness. The poster teases the messy family dynamic audiences can expect—inviting viewers to choose: Team Wife or Team Mother-in-Law?
Teaser Trailers: Domestic Chaos, Mother-in-Law as the Puppet Master
Meanwhile, the teaser trailers show snippets of daily chaos inside Donda’s home: endless complaints, Andara’s bubbling frustration, and Raja helplessly stuck between the two most important women in his life. From her tone of voice to her unapologetically bold gestures, these teasers prove that the character of Donda fits Bunda Corla like a glove—almost too perfectly.
Directed by Key Mangunsong, Mertua Ngeri Kali delivers a comedy-driven family drama filled with inter-generational clashes, ego battles, and love—set within one large Batak household. The film also stars Gita Bhebhita, Sophie Navita, Siti Fauziah, and Bonar Manalu.
Produced by Im-a-gin-e in collaboration with A&Z Films, Anami Films, PK Films, Josh Pictures, and Kami Sinema, Mertua Ngeri Kali promises a refreshing family comedy that’s hilarious, heartwarming, and best enjoyed with your loved ones. Get your mind (and nerves) ready to laugh out loud with Bunda Corla in her film debut!
