In a deeply moving moment of remembrance, Harry Kiss, the father of the late beloved singer Vidi Aldiano, recently opened up about the heartfelt prayers he offered for his son during his battle with illness. This personal revelation came as Harry visited Vidi’s resting place at TPU Tanah Kusir in South Jakarta.
Harry shared, “What I tirelessly did while Vidi was sick was to pray that his illness would be lifted, and that he would be granted a long life.”
Surprisingly, Harry believes his profound prayers were indeed answered, albeit in a way he hadn’t initially envisioned.

Reflecting on this profound realization, Harry explained, “It turns out Vidi was granted a long life because he passed away at the peak of his career, at a time when everyone deeply loved him. This enduring legacy will ensure he lives on forever in the memories of our society, his dedicated fans, and his cherished friends.”
He further elaborated on his unique perspective: “I prayed for him to have a long life physically, but it turned out that God truly answered my prayer by ensuring he would live on eternally, remembered forever in the hearts of many.”
Father’s Heartfelt Reflections on Losing Vidi Aldiano Ahead of Eid
The profound loss of Vidi just before the revered occasion of Eid al-Fitr (Idul Fitri) has undoubtedly cast a heavy shadow over Harry and his wife, Besbarini. It is an immense challenge for them to navigate this festive period without their beloved son. Among the many poignant moments they will deeply miss is Vidi’s vibrant presence in their cherished annual Lebaran family photographs.
Harry fondly recalled their tradition, stating, “Every Lebaran, we would always gather for a family photo in front, always together. Now, that cherished moment will unfortunately be missing one person.”
In this time of grief, Harry now turns to Vidi’s vast circle of friends and acquaintances, earnestly hoping they will continue to offer prayers for his beloved son. He firmly believes that only through collective prayer can Vidi find solace and guidance on his spiritual journey.
He concluded his heartfelt plea by saying, “My final prayer is that we ask all friends and loved ones to send Al-Fatihah for Vidi, so that he may journey towards the divine light. As we all know, our spirits are breathed into us by the Almighty God, and in due time, that spirit will be called back.”
Vidi Aldiano tragically breathed his last on Saturday, March 7th, at 4:33 PM WIB, concluding a valiant nearly seven-year battle against kidney cancer. He was only 35 years old. His final resting place is at TPU Tanah Kusir in South Jakarta, where he was laid to rest on Sunday, March 8th.
Vidi’s arduous health journey began in 2019 when he was diagnosed with kidney cancer. Following this life-altering news, the acclaimed singer of ‘Nuansa Bening’ underwent immediate surgery to remove one of his kidneys. In a display of courage and determination, Vidi made the difficult decision to step back from the bustling entertainment industry, dedicating his focus entirely to his treatment and recovery.
He is survived by his devoted wife, Sheila Dara Aisha, with whom he built a loving home since their marriage in January 2022. His memory lives on through her and the countless lives he touched.
