Ciara Sotto Mauled By Gian Magdangal In 'Hari Ng Tondo' Without Knowing She's Already Pregnant

CIARA SOTTO looks so pretty at the presscon of “Hari ng Tondo” so some folks said the baby she’s carrying in her womb must be a girl. But sorry, folks, her and husbands Jojo Oconer’s first born will be a boy. In “Hari ng Tondo”, she plays Gian Magdangal’s battered girlfriend. Each time Gian asks for sex and she’d refuse, he’d hit her on the tummy. “I didn’t know yet then that I was already pregnant,” says Ciara. “E, si Gian, tinototoo niya ang eksena, even slamming me against the wall.

Hindi niya kaya ang acting lang, so natatamaan talaga ako, pati si Cris Villonco. Nasasaktan kami talaga. Pero nakakatulong naman sa eksena kasi totoong-totoo talaga ang dating. Maski noong sumali sa ‘Celebrity Dance Battle’ ng TV5, hindi ko pa rin alam na buntis na ako at hinahagis-hagis ako ng partner ko. Mabuti na lang, matibay yung kapit ng baby ko kaya hindi ako nakunan. He is due to come sa first week of March.”

She’s so happy to be a part of “Hari ng Tondo”. “When Tita Bibeth Orteza (who wrote the script) asked me if I’m available for a role in the comeback film of Tito Carlitos Siguion Reyna, nag-yes agad ako kahit hindi ko pa alam kung ano ang story at ang role ko. Favorite ko kasi ang movies ni Tito Carlitos, lalo na ang ‘Hihintayin Kita sa Langit’. Pero noong una, kinabahan ako kasi istrikto raw siya and a perfectionist. But he turned out be a very caring and encouraging director. Sobrang natuwa ako nang pinuri-puri niya ang acting ko.”

“Hari ng Tondo” will be released by Star Cinema in commercial theatres on October 1. It also stars Rafa Siguion Reyna, Ali Sotto, Liza Lorena, Rez Cortez, Lui Manzala, Aiza Seguerra, Eric Quizon and Lorenz Martinez.
