Family

Deddy Mizwar is the son of H. Adrian Andres (Dutch-Bugis descent) and his mother Mrs. Sun'ah. His mother was heavily involved with Betawi theater arts activities at the Jakarta Youth Theater. Deddy Mizwar has followed in his mother's footsteps in theater arts since 1973 and has been involved in film since 1976. Lately he has devoted himself to Islamic da'wah films with his wife Giselawati. This husband and wife established the company PT Demi Gisela Citra Sinema in 1996 and focused on Islamic genre dramas even though at that time television had not yet accepted the phenomenon. This kind of drama should not be limited to the month of Ramadan.
