SANYA LOPEZ feels lucky that after guesting in “Wish Ko Lang” and “Mars Pa More”, she’s now a guest again in the fresh new episode of “Dear Uge”.
She stars in the episode “Ang Dalawang Mrs. U”, which has two parts. The first part will be shown this Sunday at 2:30 PM and the second part on September 27.
“Suwerte ko talaga dahil sunod-sunod ang guestings ko,” says Sanya. “And I play a good role in ‘Dear Uge’. The story starts na namatay ang husband ni Ate Uge as Stella. Di niya alam, may other woman pala yung mister niya, si Nelda, at ako yun, and I happen to be pregnant.”
Uge’s husband named Marco Unciano has left a big sum of money, but he placed it under the name of his lawyer friend, Atty. George, played by Gardo Versoza, who happens to be gay.
Uge can inherit the money only if she would comply with one condition: she has to live with her husband’s mistress under one roof for a certain number of days.
Since the money is entrusted in George’s name, then Uge as Stella has no choice but to comply and accept the challenge to live with Nelda, no matter how repulsive it is for her.
Nelda also accepts the challenge and while they are living together, Atty. George keeps watch on them and takes note of their behavior toward each other. The reason for this is for him to determine who deserves to get a bigger amount of money from his late client: Uge or Sanya?
As maybe expected, sparks immediately fly between the two Mrs. U. Uge insists that she is the legal wife while Sanya says she has the advantage of carrying Mr. Unciano’s unborn child. No one is wiling to give way.
Gina Marissa Tagasa, the beautiful and talented head writer of “Dear Uge”, says that the material about two women fighting may be explosive but their treatment is very light.
“May konting dramatic moments din between the two female protagonists na very touching ang dating,” she says. “Sa kabuuan, very entertaining siya and heartwarming, with great performances from Uge, Sanya and Gardo, written by Jessie Villabrille and directed by Tata Betita.”
“Nag-enjoy ako sa role, kasi magkahalong comedy at drama,” adds Sanya. “It’s so much fun to work with both Ate Uge and Kuya Gardo kasi pareho silang napakagaling at napakasarap na kaeksena.”
Sanya’s recent guesting in “Mars Pa More” is a big hit with the viewers as she shared her workout routine at home to maintain her shapely figure.
Since she doesn’t have the usual equipment used in a gym, she shows her improvised exercises done on the floor and on the wall which anyone can do at their very own home.
“We have to be inventive kasi hindi tayo makapunta sa gym to work out,” she says. “I’m really praying matapos na itong pandemic para makapag-taping na rin kami ng aming bagong show. Kasama ako sa ‘Agimat ng Agila’ starring Sen. Bong Revilla and I’m excited and looking forward to taping the show with him. Hopefully soon.”
