In the trailer, Mylene Dizon gives a bravura performance in that scene where she is fuming so mad after learning her husband James Blanco is unfaithful to her and has an affair with Dimples Romano who’s pregnant with their child. In front of a huge tree, she puts a curse on Dimples with all her might, including the child she’s carrying. Mylene does it convincingly with such force you won’t be surprised when the skin of Dimples and her baby Mira both turn into something like hard wood. Dimples dies after giving birth and Mira is raised by her friends Pokwang and John Lapus until she becames a teener portrayed by Julia Barretto.
Julia is given so many heavy dramatic scenes in the show and she’s thankful that she took a lot of acting workshops before they started taping. “They helped prepare me for my difficult scenes but I also have to thank our three directors, Jerome Pobocan, Jojo Saguin and Erick Salud, and all my co-stars dahil they all helped me in interpreting my role well.”
Her two leading men were asked how they’d describe Julia. “She’s a sweetheart and it’s really a pleasure to work with her,” says Sam.
“Masarap siyang katrabaho kasi masayahing tao,” says Enrique. “She’s so bubbly, laging nakatawa at sobrang kulit.”
One of the new guys being introduced in the show is Ryle Santiago, the son of Sherilyn Reyes with ex-husband Reilly Santiago, the brother of Raymart. Someone asked Julia if everything is okay between them since everyone knows that her Aunt Claudine and Raymart are now at odds. “Wala naman kaming problema, magkababata kami niyan,” she says.
