However he said, the storyline must be based on actual facts and not go against the life history of the former Kelantan menteri besar.
“We welcome anyone and any effort to highlight my late father in any way. We only hope that when it is brought (to the silver screen), it will be based on history.
“So first of all the facts must be correct. Do not make a film that exaggerates things to the point that the future generations form their understanding of Tuan Guru based on falsehoods,” he was quoted as saying by Sinar Harian in a media conference at the PAS headquarters today.
The PAS Youth Chief said this in regard to popular local director Aziz M Osman having expressed a wish to produce a movie based on Nik Aziz’s life.
Aziz had previously said that if he were to make the film, it would focus on Nik Aziz’s efforts to educate the public on the Islamic law of hudud.
On February 12 last year, Nik Aziz who was also the spiritual leader of PAS, passed away at the age of 84 after battling prostate cancer.
