Another woman who is close to Rocco's heart is none other than Superstar Nora Aunor. How did the two hit it off in the Cinemalaya film 'Hustisya'?

Rocco and Lovi recently admitted their budding romance on national TV. The Kapuso actor, however, revealed that he has played an important part in another actress’s heart.
 
This is true in Hustisya, a Cinemalaya film where Rocco Nacino will portray a lawyer who influences the character of Superstar Nora Aunor.
 
In an interview on Tonight With Arnold Clavio, Rocco said, “Ako po ay gaganap na isang lawyer na corrupt. At ako po ang magiging dahilan kung bakit si Ms. Nora Aunor ay from someone na may puso ay magiging part of the system.”
 
The actor found his role challenging, especially because he shares all of his scenes with the Superstar.
 
“Direk Joel Lamangan was there to make sure everything went smoothly, at tutok na tutok siya sa akin. I’m with her (Nora) sa lahat ng eksena ko eh kaya dapat talaga pinaghahandaan.,” he said.
 
Rocco said his girlfriend Lovi helped him feel comfortable around Nora by sharing her experiences working with the veteran. Lovi worked with her in the drama film Thy Womb in 2012.
 
Throughout filming, Rocco confirmed that the Superstar remains grounded, "Walang ere. Mabait siya. Nakaalalay siya sa akin palagi."
 
“She talks to me a lot. Nagkwekuwentuhan kami madalas. Kinekuwento niya mga experiences niya with her career. It’s really fun talking to her, really approachable,” he continued.
 
In the short period they got to work together, Nora has also grown fond of the actor and calls him ‘anak.’
