Aljur Abrenica stresses importance of family in his career
Hunk actor Aljur Abrenica is back on track! He has his hands full not only this summer, but the whole year of 2016. He is busy taping for the Primetime show Once Again , filming the movie “Expressway,” as well as promoting his newest single, “Mahal Pa Rin Kita.”
Even though the actor-singer has a packed schedule, he always makes time for his loved ones.
He birthday celebration last March 24 with his family was quite special.
He told GMANetwork.com, "[Pumunta] kami sa Crystal Beach [Resort sa Zambales]. Nag-fasting kami sa social media at saka sa lahat ng gadgets. Lahat kami nagluto, nag-gitara, nag-catch up [at dinamdam ang] spirit ng dagat. It was an acoustic night so fasting talaga sa lahat ng nakasanayan natin sa city and [basically just connected with] the family.”
Aljur owes his career to the people who have been with him all throughout his journey in show business, “Family kasi is the core of everything. Once nawala 'yung koneksyon mo sa family mo, mawawalan ka ng reason kung bakit ka nasa industry.”
“That’s why you're in the industry dahil sa kwento ng buhay mo na to inspire people [and] bring message to them. 'Pag nawala 'yan, para ka lang singaw na nagli-linger sa industry,” he added.
He and his brother Vin, who is also an actor, don’t want to lost touch with their parents and siblings. "Nawawalan kami ng time together, 'yung nakasanayan ng pamilya na everyday magkasama [kaya] we see to it every week [na] buo.”
The Kapuso star understands how his parents feel every time they are away, "Recently kasi pumunta ako ng Hong Kong at na-meet ko naman ang mga OFW’s. Naramdaman ko kasi 'yung longing nila sa bansa natin [at] sa [kanilang] family.”
He advised people like him to, “Be connected with your family kahit tawag lang 'yan, malaking bagay na 'yan and 'di naman kailangan mag-spend ng malaking pera, [ang] imporante [ay] buo kayo [at] magkakasama kayo.”
