All the way to London ay nagpunta si Andi Eigenmann upang mag-shoot ng pinagbibidahan niyang pelikulang "Maid In London."
Asawa niya rito si Matt Evans at co-star si Polo Ravales sa pelikula na directed by Danni Ugali.
Hindi ba nagkailangan sina Andi at Matt na mag-shoot ng love scene bilang mag-asawa dahil sa The Greatest Love na teleserye ay magkapatid sila?
Tumawa si Matt bago sumagot, "Actually, after nung scene, tawa kami nang tawa. Kasi hindi namin alam nung umpisa kung paano ie-execute.
"Mabuti sa gabi, hindi rin ganung karaming ilaw. Naitawid naman namin.
"Sa umpisa, hindi talaga maiaalis ang ilangan pero napaka-professional talaga ni Andi Eigenmann at napakagaling."
Showing na ang nasabing pelikulang may kuwento ng mga “TNT” (tago nang tago) na Pinoy overseas sa London, at showing na sa mga sinehan ngayong Miyerkules, July 4.
Kumusta ang naging experience ni Andi shooting The Maid In London sa nasabing bansa?
“It was such a fun experience, a bit challenging at the beginning,” simula ni Andi sa presscon ng nasabing pelikula sa Aberdeen Court, Quezon City kamakailan.
“We also had our London team there to work with, si Tita Beth, kasama namin, she’s from London also.
“Iba siyempre ang style of work ethics nila doon kesa dito. Pero it was really nice that we were able to exchange notes and learn from each other and it was definitely an experience. That was unforgettable for me and I hope it’s the same with them.”
Ibig sabihin ba nito ay magiging aktibo na uli si Andi sa showbiz, dahil nagsabi siya noong magpapahinga muna siya sa limelight?
“Of course, I’m truly happy to be doing this movie with the whole cast and the production. And so, I’m here back in Manila to help promote and support the movie.
“But I’m just visiting. Puwede namang per project basis na lang muna ako, if ever na magkakaroon naman ng offers para gumawa ng certain projects, game naman ako para doon.
“Pero hindi na po ako taga-Manila. I’m from Baler, Aurora!”
Habang nasa London ay may na-meet ba siyang tunay na OFW na Pinoys para maka-relate siya sa role niya bilang isang domestic helper sa pelikula niya?
“I got really close to the family of our producer there in London, I call them ‘my titas from London’, lahat po sila ay mga OFW, they used to be. And they built their lives there through the years.
“I also met their mom and then also, yung iba pong mga nag-volunteer na mga Filipinos na sumali at tumulong sa movie while we were there, all of them were OFWs.
“I definitely consider them as my friends, if not as family up to this day, coz they took care of me there, they were so hospitable sa akin.
“Mas naintindihan ko ang gravity or kung bakit importante ang pelikula para sa mga manonood, kasi, mas naintindihan ko kung papaano tumatakbo ang mga buhay nila doon.”--For the full story, visit PEP.ph
