Kapamilya actress Kim Chiu revealed her motivation behind the success of her latest movie “Bride for Rent” with her onscreen partner Xian Lim.
The 23-year-old “Pinoy Big Brother” winner admitted that she is worried and anxious about her latest project, which she considers a big challenge.
“Ni-ne-nerbiyos po ngayon. Araw-araw kami nagdadasal kasi nakakakaba kasi from kay Vice Ganda na sobrang nakakatawa, sa Pagpag na sobrang nakakatakot, eto kami ngayon sa 2014 nakakatawa din, nakaka-in love. Siyempre sa Pagpag may romance din dun, sa Girl Boy Bakla Tomboy may comedy so pinagsama lang yung dalawa. Sana talaga suportahan ng mga ta kasi sobra talagang binigay namin lahat ng effort namin para sa pelikulang ito,” she said according to a report by push.abs-cbn.com.
Chiu also wishes that the project can reach or even overtake the success of first film with Lim “Bakit Di Ka Crush Ng Crush Mo” which was a box office hit.
“Oo naman, kailan naman nagkaroon ng walang pressure? (laughs) Sa amin naman umaasa kami na ganun pa rin or mas higit pa yung ibibigay na suporta sa amin ng mga tao. Yun talaga yung pinagdadasal namin araw-araw nung ginagawa namin itong movie na ito,” she said.
Despite her controversial statement in a press conference, Chiu also said she wants to bring happiness to the people who will watch and support her movie.
“Gusto rin namin na mapasaya yung mga manunuod kahit na dalawang oras or isang oras kalahati lang, tumawa ang sila ng tumawa, kalimutan muna nila yung problema nila and after that back to reality na sila,” she added.
Sweet to mature roles
In the the film, another challenge for the actress was deviating from her previous roles as a sweet or demure girl.
“More on challenging ito para sa akin. Yun ngang mga nakakasalubong ko dito sa ABS-CBN sinasabi sa akin, ‘Anak, parang hindi ka na mahinhin ngayon ah!’ Yung kilala naming mahinhin parang nawala,’” she said.
“Sabi ko naman ako pa rin ito, yun lang yung role kaya nakakapanibago. Nakakapanbago rin para sa akin na maging sobrang komedyante, as in to the highest level. Hindi naman ako marunong magpatawa pero dito sobrang challenge para sa akin na maging extra funny,” she added.
She also admitted that her character in “Bride for Rent” is more aggressive than the male lead.
“Dito, nag-effort talaga kami na mas matawa sila sa mga pinag-gagagawa ko. Ako yung humahawak sa lalaki, ako yung halik ng halik. Si Rocky kasi dito laki sa squatter, wala kaming pera. One of the boys kasi siya, patay na yung nanay ko dito, tatay ko na lang tapos tatlo yung kuya ko. So naging agresibo siya,” she explained.
What motivates her?
Chiu, on the other hand, jokingly revealed what motivated her during their shoots.
“Pag nakita niyo po si Xian na nakasando lang,” she said in jest.
“Pag nakita niyo po si Xian na nakasando lang.”
The “chinita princess” also said she and Lim were definitely more comfortable working together which made it easier for them to do intimate scenes as fake husband and wife.
“Harmless naman si Xian,” she said laughing.
“Halos araw-araw naman kami nag-shu-shooting para umabot kami sa play date namin. At saka kung sa past movie namin ni Xian medyo nabitin sila sa mga moments namin together, ngayon mas madami na kasi magkasama kami dito sa iisang bahay,” she added.
