This I get three by myself, what if I do it with you?

โ€” Ijal (Iqbaal Ramadhan)Ijal recruits Adut for his plan.

Directed by Edy Khemod, known as the drummer for the band Seringai, the movie boasts a notable production team including Ernest Prakasa, Dipa Andika, and Iqbaal Ramadhan himself. The trailer showcases Ramadhan as Ijal, who appears to be recruiting Kristo Immanuel's character, Adut, for a grand, albeit questionable, plan. Their dialogue hints at ambitious, perhaps unrealistic, financial goals, adding a layer of comedic tension.

Six?

โ€” AdutAdut responds to Ijal's proposition.

The cast includes Zulfa Maharani as Tia and Kawai Labiba as Melodi. The trailer also features a surprise cameo from Vincent Rompies, who plays himself. In a humorous scene, Melodi and Adut mistake him for Desta, his former bandmate, highlighting the film's comedic elements. The soundtrack features the song "Mati Muda" by Kelompok Penerbang Roket.

More, I'd say.

โ€” Ijal (Iqbaal Ramadhan)Ijal responds to Adut's calculation.

Producer Ernest Prakasa shared on social media that the film's concept presented significant technical challenges, particularly regarding filming locations. These included shooting near train tracks, in a studio with 500 extras, and amidst a crowd of 30,000 festival-goers. Despite these hurdles, the production team successfully completed the film through meticulous preparation and collaboration. "Operasi Pesta Copet" is scheduled to hit cinemas on August 27, 2026.

Seven hundred?

โ€” AdutAdut expresses shock at the implied earnings.
