Mukha mang laging nag-aaway on screen sina Maxene Magalona, Glaiza de Castro at Jackie Rice, ibang-iba ang bonding nila at ng kanilang co-stars when the camera stops rolling! Text by Jason John S. Lim. Interviews by Loretta Ramirez. Photos by Mitch S. Mauricio.



Sa nalalapit na pagtatapos ng Kung Aagawin Mo ang Lahat sa Akin, Glaiza de Castro and Jackie Rice agree na maraming ikagugulat ang kanilang avid viewers.

"A lot of revelations [are coming]!" ang panimula ni Glaiza. Na sinegundahan naman ni Jackie with, "sobrang dami."

Like what? Jackie enumerates, "kung sino ba talaga 'yung mga totoong anak, ampon—mga nagbuwis ng buhay."

"Para sa show," Glaiza continues. "Tsaka kailangan magsakripisyo ng ilang roles, para lang ma-realize ni Gladys na super mali 'yung ginagawa niya. So medyo tragic." But fans should not fret, the two girls say, dahil siguradong may satisfying na ending naman ang kuwento nila. Yun nga lang, Jackie says, "heavy talaga."

With only a few taping days remaining, kitang-kita na ang closeness ng cast. In one of our interviews with Maxene Magalona, she tells us, "ang masasabi ko lang, very comfortable kami sa isa't isa. And masaya lagi sa set, there's never a dull moment. Lagi kaming nag-uusap, nagba-bonding—"

And at the risk of sounding repetitive, Glaiza and Jackie backs this up. "Okay sila (her cast mates) katrabaho," kuwento ni Glaiza. "Nakakatuwa kasi nung una, parang hindi namin na-imagine na parang lahat ng cast ng Kung Aagawin magiging isang malaking clique! 'Yung riot on TV, ibang riot naman off-cam."

Jackie adds, "sa sobrang [saya] nga namin, hindi namin namalayan patapos na 'yung show! Sobrang nalungkot kami."

Dagdag pa ni Jackie, kung mukhang seryosong-seryoso sila sa show, during rehearsals daw ay todo biruan pa rin ang cast ng show.

With their taping days dwindling, Maxene shares that she hopes they still get to go out—nang buong cast ang magkakasama. "Hopefully soon, magkakaroon kami ng chance na gawin yun," she tells us. "Kasi nga lahat naman kami enjoy. And para nga kaming nasa labas kapag nagta-trabaho kasi very enjoy kami, nagba-bonding kami lagi."

Kung Aagawin Mo ang Lahat sa Akin airs every weekday afternoon, pagkatapos ng Ngayon at Kailanman sa nangungunang Dramarama sa Hapon ng GMA.
