Aga Muhlach on his movie with Angel Locsin: 'Mahirap!'


While Aga Muhlach describes working on his new movie with Angel Locsin as strenuous, he was also ecstatic about the big Star Cinema production. "Okay naman, mahirap lang yung movie namin. Mahirap yung coverage. Kasi hindi siya yung love story between a boy and a girl. Ito, merong backrop ng politics—there's a governor, probinsiya then may nakulong. So malaki yung scope niya. Meron ding [scenes sa] Japan and makukulong din ako dun. Then uuwi ako sa probinsya namin and then nandun si Angel—magkakabarilan pa doon. [Noon] sabi ko nga kay Direk Olive (Lamasan) tuwing nagkikita kami, 'Direk, kailan tayo magtatrabaho?'’ So finally ito na, sabi ko, 'Direk, hindi ko naman akalain na ganito kahirap yung gagawin natin."

He said that for now, he and Angel will just have to work hard and give their best. What adds to the grandness of the movie is that he is performing several kinds of dances. "And our dancing? We rehearse all the time. Ang dancing namin you are not just performing. It is a dance na biglang may eksena dun na habang sumasayaw dun nagkakapatayan. Nag-aaway kami sa tango, may mga ganun. Ibang-iba… That's why when it was offered sa akin sabi ko, 'Wow! Ganda. This is the movie talaga.’ And then nung ginagawa ko na I realized, 'Kaya ko ba ito?' Malakas naman yung katawan ko kaya lang when you start dancing again now, ito na yung reality na you have to rehearse every other day… And I am doing seven dances. I have yung pasa doble, yung may toro na may (stomps feet). And there's hip-hop, dalawang klaseng tango, Argentine and American and Rumba. Mahirap!"

Aga shared that when it comes to his work, he is lifting everything to the Lord. "Pagkatapos nitong pelikulang ito, hindi naman ako pwedeng magplano ng buhay ko kasi wala naman tayo magagawa diyan but yung set-up ko perfect na, e. Kay Regine (Velasquez), kay Angel, tapos Lea (Salonga) so kapag nabuo na yun, tsaka na uli mag-isip. Sa ngayon wala na ako iba iniisip yun na lang."
