NAKA-THREE taping days pala si Ria Atayde for this Saturday (July 22) episode ng MMK where she plays the role of Hershey Hilado na sa kuwento ng buhay ng letter sender, she was sold by her Korean boyfriend kung saan ikinasal sila.
Kakaiba ang kuwento. Parang mala- “Bride for Sale” na sa mga kawawang mga kababayan natin na mga Filipina ay hindi na bago ang social issue na ito na until now ay ipinaglalaban pa rin ng mga NGO’s na ang issues or concerns ay ang kapakanan ng mga kababaihan.
Sa kaso ni Ria, based sa teaser of the Saturday anthology hosted by Charo Santos, may eksenang rape ang young actress na or the first time in her acting career, ito ang unang rape scene infront of the camera.
“Nakakatakot po,” pagde-describe ni Ria sa kanyang eksena na hindi na kailangan i-arte. ”After their wedding, doon nangyari ng marital rape,” impormasyon ng dalaga sa amin thru our FB interview.
Dahil rape ang tema ng episode na pinagbibidahan ni Ria, noong una ay natakot siya sa magiging treatment ng eksena.
”Nag-alangan po ako honestly kasi hindi ko pa po nagawa at natakot po ako sa posibleng mga shots and whatnot. Pero si Direk Dado Lumibao is amazing and it was shot beautifully.
Kung pagbabasehan ang naging takbo ng showbiz career niya, masasabing she’s on the right track lalo pa’t nakasuporta ang inang aktres na si Sylvia Sanchez.
From her first as Titser Hope sa morning show na “Ningning”; ang layo na ng itinahak ng dalaga.
Andyan ang teleseryeng “My Dear Heart” na naging markado sa kanyang pagaartista.
“I believe my career has blossomed but is still far from being completely bloomed. Ang dami ko na pong natutunan but the more I learn, the more I realize that there are many things I have yet to learn. Super ganda po ng takbo ng career ko and I am so grateful for being blessed like this.”
After ng MMK episode sa dating na Sabado, she’ll fly to Singapore this weekend to shoot for the month-long anniversary presentation ng Ipaglaban Mo aside from a short guesting sa isang fantasy show na napapanood on weekends.
After portraying the role of Dra. Guia in MDH na nagtatakak sa milyun- milyong manonood ng serye ay wala pang kasunod na drama serye offer sa kanya.
“But I’m wish it will come very soon,” pagkukuwento pa ng dalaga.
Sa katunayan, gusto nga ng manonood ng mga shows ni Ria na magkaroon ng project silang mag-anak (Sylvia and Aryo Atayde) na kung hindi man isang teleserye ay isang MMK episode na sila ang mga bida.
“If anything, mauna po ata Arjo-Sylvia. But of course, I would love to have work with the two of them. It would be an honor and so much fun!”
May wish ang dalaga kung sakali magkasama man sila ng inang si Ibyang (tawag namin kay Sylvia) at Arjo ay maging meaty ang role dahil para mas challenging at mas makapagtutulungan sila.
Sa karanasan ng dalaga portraying the role of Hershey na isang “self-made” Pinay born in the Philippines but now based in Australia on women and the issue of rape; this should be taken seriously and not a joke.
My stake on rape, nakakaawa ang biktima at ang may kagagawan ng krimen should be put to jail para magdusa kung hindi man patawan ng “death penalty.
But for Ria: “I don’t wish death on anybody but I do wish that they suffer the consequences…maybe lifetime imprisonment so they think about their faults. As for rape itself, it’s an injustice that happens every day regardless of one’s status in life. It’s taking away somebody’s choice and disrespecting that. It’s making someone believe they’re less people than what they are can potentially be. It’s stripping them off their dignity and changing their lives forever…traumatizing them physically, mentally, and emotionally. I do not wish this on anybody.”
For MMK ‘s Saturday episode ay makaksama ni Ria sina Aleck Bovick, Ryle Santiago, Marithez Samson, Richard Reynoso, Ernier Garcia, Simeon Ibarra and Jordan Hwang who plays her husband.
