Donny Damara

Donny Damara Prasadhana (born October 12, 1966) is a highly respected Indonesian actor, model, and politician of Sundanese descent. He began his career in the late 1980s and has since built an impressive filmography, known for his versatile performances. While he initially balanced acting with his college and social life, he gained significant recognition over the years. A graduate of the Faculty of Social and Political Sciences at the University of Indonesia, Donny saw a shift to television soap operas during a period of decline in the Indonesian film industry. A highlight of his career was winning the Best Actor award at the 6th Asian Film Awards for his role in the 2012 film "Lovely Man." He continues to be active in the industry, playing diverse roles and often portraying nuanced father figures. His recent works include films like "Buya Hamka Vol. 1" (2023), "Today We'll Talk About That Day" (2023), "The Big 4" (2022), "Photocopier" (2021), and the upcoming "Gowok: Javanese Kamasutra" (2025).
