Award-winning stage and film actress Pinky Amador was so impressed with her co-stars Dingdong Dantes and Marian Rivera in their highly-anticipated primetime sitcom Jose and Maria's Bonggang Villa.
During the grand media conference last May 5, Pinky told the entertainment press that she had the pleasure of working with DongYan when they were just starting in show business.
She remembered, “Alam mo nag-uumpisa pa lang sina Dong at Yan, dalaga at binata pa lang sila, nakatrabaho ko na sila pareho.
Pinky then continued, “Ang dali-dali, ang gaan-gaan kasama.
"There's no difference, walang higit, walang kulang sa kanilang dalawa. They were both very present, very helpful.”
The seasoned drama talent also has only kind words for their director John "Sweet" Lapus, who serves as the captain of their sitcom.
“And siyempre dahil si Direk Sweet, nandoon parang nandoon siya nagkukumpas para sa amin.”
“Nagiging madali sa amin sakyan kung ano 'yung gusto niya mangyari sa isang eksena.”
Catch Pinky Amador as Mommy Janice in the world premiere of Jose and Maria's Bonggang Villa slated on May 14 at 7:15 pm.
