The Wedding of the Year: A Dazzling Affair in Setia Alam

Couples Fajrul Rahman and Siti Hanisah

Malaysia’s most talked-about wedding of 2024 came to an extravagant close on October 12, at the Setia City Convention Centre in Setia Alam. The union of Fajrul Rahman and Siti Hanisah, son and daughter-in-law of Datuk Muhammad Yusoff, founder of DMY Creation, was celebrated in an event that transformed the venue into what can only be described as a cinematic spectacle.


Two massive halls, adorned with stunning lighting and state-of-the-art sound design by DMY Events, a subsidiary of DMY Creation, were at the center of the celebration. The halls were more than just a venue; they were designed to evoke the look and feel of an opulent movie set, further emphasizing DMY Creation’s commitment to cinematic excellence. DMY Creation, known for its contributions to Malaysia’s Tamil and Bollywood film industries, brought its experience in film production and set design to life through this extravagant wedding reception.

Outside the convention center, a dazzling fireworks display lit up the sky over Setia Alam. Guests were treated to a visual and auditory feast, one that reflected DMY Creation’s passion for combining storytelling with larger-than-life experiences. The fireworks were not just a display of wealth but a nod to the company’s roots in producing spectacles for the big screen.

As one of Malaysia's leading entertainment companies, DMY Creation has been at the forefront of bringing Tamil, Bollywood, and other international films to Malaysian audiences. Films like Raayan, Thangalaan, and Salaar have been box-office successes in Malaysia, largely due to DMY’s ability to bridge cultural gaps between India and Malaysia. This same ethos of cultural blending was evident in every aspect of the wedding, from the décor to the entertainment.

Inside, the couple’s attire was a reflection of this cultural fusion. Fajrul Rahman and Siti Hanisah were dressed in custom-made outfits designed by India’s top designers, Manish Malhotra and Sabyasachi. Their ensembles, dripping in elegance and sophistication, mirrored the kind of luxury that DMY Creation’s films are known for. The bride’s regal look was the perfect complement to the grandeur of the evening, while the groom’s stylish attire reflected a blend of traditional and modern influences, much like DMY’s film projects.

Entertainment was a key highlight of the evening, with performances curated to reflect the fusion of Bollywood and Kollywood cultures. Renowned violinist Manoj Kumar delivered a breathtaking performance, combining classical Indian violin with contemporary melodies, which echoed the spirit of DMY’s approach to entertainment. In addition, choreographer John Britto created show-stopping dance performances that drew from both Bollywood and Tamil cinema traditions, further enhancing the night’s cinematic feel.

The evening also included a culinary journey that perfectly balanced innovation with tradition. Celebrity chef Madhampatty Rangaraj, who has catered for Tamil cinema’s biggest stars, prepared a menu that showcased traditional grains and millet, blending them with modern flavors. The dining experience was much like a well-crafted film full of surprises and memorable moments, adding to the night’s opulence.

Not to be outdone, the guest list included some of the biggest names in Malaysian entertainment, politics, and social media. Celebrities from Tamil cinema, including GV Prakash Kumar, a renowned composer, and Ashok Selvan, a popular actor, attended the wedding, bringing even more star power to the night. Keerthy Pandian, known for her elegant performances in Tamil films, also graced the event, adding to its charm. Their presence underscored the significance of the wedding, not just as a personal celebration but as a cultural milestone.

Throughout the night, the theme of cultural fusion was ever-present. As Datuk Muhammad Yusoff addressed the crowd, he spoke about the importance of blending cultures, not only in film but also in life. “This wedding is a celebration of more than just the union of two individuals,” Yusoff said. “It’s a coming together of two families, two cultures, and two worlds. DMY Creation has always strived to bring people together through entertainment, and tonight, we celebrate that same spirit.”

As the night came to a close, the fireworks above Setia Alam served as a fitting finale to an evening that will be remembered as one of the grandest weddings Malaysia has ever seen. Just as DMY Creation has produced unforgettable films, this wedding was a testament to the company’s ability to create magical, larger-than-life experiences that bring people together in celebration.
