NOVA VILLA says she was so surprised when she learned she was chosen to be a Papal awardee.
“Ever since, tumutulong ako pero hindi ko naman pinapaalam, hindi publicized,” she says.
“But yung mga pari palang katrabaho ko, they keep track of my church work and sila ang nagkukuwento.
"For 38 years, member ako ng Mother Butler Guild sa San Lorenzo Ruiz parish and I’ve also been active sa cursillo movement for many years now. The award really humbled me at hindi ko talaga inaasahan.”
It’s her first time to do lock in taping. What’s her reaction when “Owe My Love” was offered to her?
“Sa totoo lang, napapalakpak ako. Type ko, kasi para akong nakakawala and now, enjoy ako.
"Ang tagal ko na kasing nakakulong lang sa bahay, so nami-miss ko na talagang magtrabaho. So now, naiba ang surroundings ko, may trabaho pa ako.”
She plays Lola Ems in “Owe My Love”, the meddlesome grandma of Lovi Poe. The first thing she did is to ask what she’ll bring on the set.
“I want to know kung anong mga dadalhin ko kasi one month kami sa lock in taping. Tapos, kinausap ko yung kasambahay namin kasi ako ang namamahala sa needs ng bahay namin, so bilin ako ng bilin sa kanya.
"Ito, para sa ilaw. Ito, para sa pagkain. Mga ganun. And now, I will never regret na napasama ako rito sa lock in taping kasi maganda ang samahan naming lahat dito.
"I will miss everyone kapag tapos na kami sa taping, kasi we became close to one another. Pati ang crew, lahat ng stars walang nagbigay ng problema.
"Umaapaw ang pagkain kasi andaming sponsors na nagpapadala ng food, lalo na si Ai Ai, andaming pinatitikim sa amin, so enjoy na enjoy kaming lahat.”
Don’t miss the very positive vibes given by “Owe My Love” when it starts airing on GMA Telebabad starting this February 15 at 9:15 PM.
