She will not take crude remarks sitting down. “Taya” star AJ Raval said she once heard how she was being talked about by a man sitting near her group and let her know what she thinks about him.
“Nung bata pa po ako. May kwento lang po ako nang konti. Kumakain po kaming magkakapatid, may narinig po ako sa kabilang table. Parang hindi po nila alam na Kapampangan ako. Narinig ko po na pinag uusapan nila ako. Until tumayo po ako tapos nagsalita sa mukha nya. Sobrang immature ko pa at that time. Pero ngayon po, dedma na lang ako,” she said.
Although she said she brushes off some nasty comments, she added that will be ready to go ballistic on the next person who will harass her.
“Bad trip po ako sa mga bastos na tao,” said the 25-year-old actress, “Pero ngayon, kung may magbabastos sa akin, kaya ko pa ring gawin ‘yun,” she added.
Her “Taya” co-star Sean de Guzman revealed he has also been a target of nasty comments.
“Opo, naranasan ko ganyan lalo sa online,” he said, “May mga nababasa ako na nakakababa ng self-esteem. Although ‘di ko sinasagot, hinahayaan ko na lang. Ginagawa kong motivation…
Sometimes, it does get to him, he admitted.
“Minsan din po naiinsulto, naiinis ako, napapamura. Pero wala naman kasi silang inaambag sa buhay mo, kaya binabayaan ko na lang sila. Mga wala silang magawa.”
AJ and Sean are together in Vivamax’s latest psychedelic erotic thriller original movie, “Taya” directed by Roman Perez, Jr.
Sean plays Sixto, a Journalism student who discovered that the woman in his countless wet dreams is one of the prizes of an online “ending” game. Sixto makes a bet — and wins — but because of his own gambling error, he did not realize that he played for another woman named Nanette (AJ Raval). After a series of sexual encounters, Sixto becomes addicted to Nanette and promises to take her away from the syndicate that condemned her as an online ending prize.
“Taya” also stars Jela Cuenca, Angeli Khang, Mon Confiado, Pio Balbuena, Raul Morit, and Soliman Cruz.
It is written by 2018 Cinemalaya Best Screenwriter John Carlo Pacala.
“Taya” is streaming on KTX.ph, IWanTFC, TFC IPTV, and VIVAMAX.
