Political views[edit]

Nuril is an actor with critical views and upholds human rights, and often shows his arguments to the media.[18] During the 2024 Indonesian presidential election, he is against second candidate Prabowo Subianto and Gibran Rakabuming Raka, and said that he won't vote for them due to Prabowo being the perpetrator of kidnapping activists during the fall of Suharto in 1998.[18] He also defended Maria Catarina Sumarsih, an activist who initiated the Kamisan action, which is considered to have raised human rights issues regarding Prabowo as the perpetrator of kidnapping every five years, and added that he did not want the perpetrator of the kidnapping during the 1998 riots to become president.[18][19]

Nuril received both positive and negative responses to his actions.[19] He also became viral on X (formerly Twitter) and was accused of doing a black campaign by Prabowo's supporters.[20] Labour law lecturer at Gadjah Mada University, Nabiyla Risfa Izzati, praised Nuril's courage and joked that she would seek attention so that Nuril would pay attention to him.
