After "The Kung Fu Women's Football Team" surpassed the revenue milestone of 2 billion RMB (about 7,350 billion VND), the behind-the-scenes stories of the film continue to receive attention. In which, Dilraba Dilmurat's sharing about working with director Stephen Chow attracted attention.
According to an interview with Chinese media, Dilireba commented that Stephen Chow is a close director, creating a feeling of being like a friend in the working process.
From the beginning, I felt that Stephen Chow was a director very much like a friend. Working with him is a comfortable experience, helping actors develop their abilities in the best condition," the actress said.
Dilraba Dilmurat said that Stephen Chow is willing to listen to the opinions of the members of the crew. The atmosphere of open exchange helps her reduce pressure and be more proactive in building the character.
These shares are somewhat different from the public's widespread image of Stephen Chow's studio. Hong Kong (China) filmmakers are known for their high requirements, often adjusting scripts and acting right during filming.
However, the "comfortable" feeling that Dilireba mentioned does not mean that the job is under pressure. Previously, the actress said that she was surprised when she received an invitation to participate in the project. Because the film almost did not announce the selection information in the early stages, she once thought the collaboration invitation was fake.
Only after directly exchanging with Stephen Chow did Dilraba believe that she really had the opportunity to participate in the project. The actress has repeatedly expressed her love for his works, so the invitation also has the meaning of an opportunity to realize her childhood wishes.
In "The Kung Fu Women's Football Team", Dich Le Nhiet Ba plays Ngoc Lung, a striker of the Nga Mi women's football team. The character asks her to leave her familiar feminine image, participate in physical training and perform many scenes related to football and martial arts.
The film is written and directed by Stephen Chow, with the participation of Zhang Xiaofei, Dilireba and Zhang Yixing. The work combines humor, martial arts and sports elements, telling the journey of a women's football team from a low-rated position to competing in a major tournament.
According to data from the professional Dang Thap platform, the film surpassed the 2 billion CNY mark on July 28, becoming one of the outstanding works of the Chinese box office in 2026.
