Adaptations of works

A film adaptation of one of Ramlee's more famous works, Tombiruo: Penunggu Rimba, was co-produced by Astro Shaw, book publisher Karangkraf, Ideate Media and Ramlee's own production company Layar Sunan.[3][4] The film was released to cinemas on 16 October 2017.[5] The four companies are also in the process of making a film adaptation of another work titled Bagaikan Puteri,[6] a historical fiction novel surrounding a young lady who is flung into the 15th century and ends up falling for an admiral of the Aceh Sultanate.

The thriller novel Mandatori was made into a 6-part miniseries as an exclusive release on Malaysian satellite TV provider Astro's on-demand service Astro First late 2017.[7]
