Paulo joined in the fun of reading #CommentMoSaLarawanKo tweets. He even shared the creepiest online messages he received and his own online activity regrets. Paulo shared that he once accidentally liked a photo and then had to unlike it hours after.
When asked about his upcoming film, Paulo happily told the story of how he adjusted to acting for a musical, saying that he's not really a singer. He said that in addition to singing, he also had to play the piano for the role, "I had to play the piano, so I had to learn a bit." Unfortunately, he ran out of time learning how to play the piano properly and jokingly said, "Hindi na kinaya." Though a little bit defeated on his piano playing efforts, he shared that he still wants to pursue it in the future.
In the film, Paulo Avelino plays a character named Tony Javier. He comes into play when sisters Candida (Joanna Ampil) and Paula (Rachel Alejandro) decided to take in a boarder to have a source of income.
"Ang Larawan, The Movie" features the original work of Ryan Cayabyab as performed by the ABS-CBN Philharmonic Orchestra.
Based on the amazing list of cast members and how much effort was put into the music, we think it's safe to say that "Ang Larawan, The Movie" will be a tasteful film that will bring us a historic and artful cinematic experience.
Thank you, Paulo Avelino, for dropping by the Monster booth to join the kikay barkada of The Morning Rush even with just 2 hours of sleep! Catch “Ang Larawan, The Movie” showing December 25 (an official entry to the Metro Manila Film Festival)!
