Final words: The 'Ang Dalawang Mrs. Real' experience

By MICHELLE CALIGAN

 

Ngayong tapos na ang hit primetime series na Ang Dalawang Mrs. Real, paano naman mailalarawan ng mga artistang bumubuo nito ang kanilang karanasan sa show?

 

Narito ang kanilang mga sagot:

 

Alessandra de Rossi: "Masaya siya, super saya. 'Yung role kasi mabait for the first time so tuwang-tuwa ako, nakita ng tao ang ibang side ko. At ngayon ko lang ulit naranasan na kahit saan ako pumunta, [may nagsasabi] 'I watch your show', may it be Tagalog, Inglisera, lahat sila."

 

Direk Andoy Ranay: "It's a long and winding road, journey uphill. Maraming hits and misses, but nararating din naman namin ang dapat naming marating. At kung saan kami pupunta, doon kami patungo."

 

Celeste Legaspi: "I'm amazed that I have adjusted quite well to the requirements of the teleserye. I thought I would be very tired or sickly or whatever, but I have been enjoying myself immensely. And I like that the teleserye is about reality, and I can hear it everywhere I go. Women are empathizing with the situation, and nakaka-relate sila. They can't help but talk about it, and they understand what's going on. It's nice to be in a project like that."

 

Diva Montelaba: "Ito 'yung show na marami akong natutunan as an actor and as an individual. Sa bawat eksena na ginawa ko, lagi akong may natutunan lalo na sa character ko na ako ang tagagising kay Shiela sa katotohanan. Isa 'to on the list of shows na nakatulong sa akin talaga."

 

Dominic Roco: "Andami kong natutunan sa mga nakatrabaho ko, like si Maricel Soriano, first time ko siya makatrabaho. Si Tito Tommy din. I've noticed that they work really different from the other people I've worked with. Iba 'yung professionalism nila."

 

Dingdong Dantes: "Hindi lang siya isang journey sa akin bilang aktor, pero naging malaking lesson din siya para sa akin bilang tao. We will definitely come to a point where magkakaroon tayo ng pagkakamali, but what really matters is kung ano ang gagawin natin after we made that mistake, and what we do with ourselves, with the people around us, lalong-lalo na 'yung mga mahal natin sa buhay na naapektuhan natin."

 

Jaime Fabregas: "From the beginning, it was always 'Paano ka ba talaga magre-react dito?' since kailangan consistent. It's very precise. It's the first time that I've done this sort of role, na may ganitong klaseng sitwasyon, and it's eye opening actually. Sana walang gumawang ganyan."

 

Lovi Poe: "It was hard for me to portray the character of Shiela kasi she's the total opposite of me in real life. Plus hindi pa ako nagkakaroon ng anak, I've never been married. With the help of my co-stars, I'm really thankful dahil without them, siguro hindi ko mahuhugot ang tamang emosyon na gusto kong maipakita sa telebisyon."

 

Marc Abaya: "My Ang Dalawang Mrs. Real experience has been lovely. I love the cast. I had the wonderful privilege of working with Jaime Fabregas, Tommy Abuel, Susan Africa, Robert Arevalo, and above all, Dingdong Dantes. It has been a privilege and an honor to work with such a humble man, and of all the superstars I know, siya 'yung pinakamabait, pinaka-grounded, pinakatotoo. It was so much fun working with him."

 

Rodjun Cruz: "Sobrang saya ko na naging part ako ng Ang Dalawang Mrs. Real. Kumbaga sa cast pa lang, powerful na, ang gagaling. Tapos ang dami kong natutunan sa kanila, hindi lang sa pagtatrabaho. Napaka-professional, ambabait nila, at parang family talaga ang turing namin sa isa't-isa. Hindi mo namamalayan na nagtatrabaho ka kapag kasama mo sila."

 

Susan Africa: "My Ang Dalawang Mrs. Real experience is like a roller coaster. Sometimes intense, sometimes swabe lang, but in the end, there's always a light at the end of the tunnel."

 

Tommy Abuel: "Very pleasant experience. Fortunately, kami ang laging magkasama sa Papang's house, kaya kami, more or less, magkaka-vibes. Walang hassle, and all the scenes assigned to us, tapos namin lahat 'yun because we are all prepared."
