The actress admitted that she is still on cloud nine after reaching the historical mark in her career.
“Ang hirap i-explain sa isang salita lahat ng nararamdaman ko kasi kahit ngayon minsan naiisip ko nangyayari ba talaga ‘to? I am just very thankful na lahat ng pagmamahal namin sa pelikula, sa kung ano ang ginagawa namin, bumabalik siya ngayon and grabe hindi ako makapaniwala na nangyari ‘to,” she stated.
Kathryn also shared that she is overjoyed that the film was able to touch the lives of others.
“I am very happy and masaya ako dahil ang dami niyang na-touch na buhay and I think ‘yun ang importante and I think ‘yun ang trabaho natin bilang aktor na matulungan sila through our movie,” she said.
