Biography
Yuni Shara is an Indonesian singer and actress who emerged as a major force in 1990s pop music. Born Wahyu Setyaning Budi on 3 June 1972 in Batu, East Java, she is the elder sister of singer Krisdayanti. She first gained recognition at the 1989 Festival Bintang Radio & Televisi, winning first place and securing a record deal with Billboard. Her debut album *Jatuh Cinta Lagi* (1990) was followed by *Hilang Permataku* (1991) and *Salah Tingkah* (1992), but her career peaked with *Mengapa Tiada Maaf* in 1995, which sold 1.5 million copies and earned her 4 Platinum Records from BASF. She received 3 additional Platinum Records for the Indonesian version of the *Return of the Condor Heroes* martial arts TV series soundtrack. Her repertoire favored melancholic standards and Keroncong-style pieces. As a Gemini, her communicative nature suited duet work; she collaborated with actor Raffi Ahmad on *Cinta Ini* in 2011.
