Prisia Nasution is an Indonesian martial artist, model, and actress.
Nasution was born in Jakarta, Indonesia on 1 June 1984.
Beginning in junior high school, Nasution joined the national training camp for the Indonesian martial art pencak silat. She later attended university in Germany, majoring in information technology.
In 2003, during her university studies, Nasution was offered a chance to become a runway model. She accepted as she thought it would be an easy way to earn money, but soon discovered that she lacked the confidence to do it professionally; in a 2011 interview with The Jakarta Post she said her thighs were too big, making her body "defective" for modelling.
After retiring from modelling, Nasution was cast in several TV movies. She was later cast in Ifa Isfansyah's 2011 movie Sang Penari as the lead female character, Srintil, after two casting sessions; when her 1st audition failed, she read the original novel by Ahmad Tohari and decided that she could not take no for an answer. To prepare for the role, she spent time as a ronggeng in Banyumas, Central Java, practising dancing and learning the language spoken there; she also spent a period eating less to better portray a malnourished rural girl.
For her role in Sang Penari, Nasution received the Citra Award for Best Leading Actress at the 2011 Indonesian Film Festival.
Nasution was married to Ananda Siregar. The couple divorced on 4 January 2012 after going to court 11 times for discussions.
