Arie Kriting
Arie Kriting, born Satriaddin Maharinga Djongki, is a prominent Indonesian comedian and actor hailing from Wakatobi Regency. He gained national recognition as the third-place winner in the third season of Stand Up Comedy Indonesia on Kompas TV in 2013. Before this breakthrough, Arie honed his craft performing at smaller venues with the Stand Up Indo Malang community, where his unique Eastern Indonesian accent set him apart.
His impressive performance in the comedy competition positioned him alongside noteworthy talents like Babe Cabita and Fico Fachriza, marking him as the first representative from Eastern Indonesia to reach the top three. This achievement was later followed by the success of Abdurrahim Arsyad, who made it to the grand final in 2014.
Transitioning from comedy to acting, Arie made his film debut in 2014 with "Comic 8." His acting career flourished, leading to a nomination for Best Supporting Actor at the 2016 Indonesian Film Festival for his role in "Aisyah: Let Us Brothers." Notable films featuring Arie include the Warkop DKI Reborn series, "Stip & Pensil" (2017), "Susah Sinyal" (2017), "Si Juki the Movie" (2017), "Kulari Ke Pantai" (2018), and "Bumi Itu Bulat" (2019). In 2020, he expanded his creative horizons by making his directorial debut with the film "Pelukis Hantu."
