Actress Maja Salvador revealed that she was supposed to star in the recently launched drama series ‘Init sa Magdamag‘ with her ex-boyfriend Gerald Anderson but she turned down the project.
She said that she was afraid that the project’s daring scenes would risk her relationship with her current boyfriend businessman Rambo Nuñez.
In an interview with MEGA Entertainment, Maja said that she values her work that’s why she previously did not care what her partners would think about her scenes in her work.
“Bago pa nga lang yung relationship namin, tinodo ko na eh. As in kasi diba, grabe ako sa pagpapahalaga ko sa work. So walang makakapigil sakin if mag-kissing scene ako, love scene, ganyan, kahit di comfortable yung ka-relationship ko. I do it because it’s my work,” said Maja.
However, the 32-year-old actress changed her values for her current boyfriend. She explained that she wanted their relationship to work that’s why she turned the lead role in ‘Init sa Magdamag.‘
“Nung nagkabalikan kami ni Rambo, meron akong moment na gusto ko mag-work to. Baka kaya hindi nag-wo-work kasi wala akong pakialam. Kasi sarili ko lang iniintindi ko parang hindi ko pinapahalagahan yung nararamdaman ng partner ko. So yun yung nag-start na kinausap ko yung mga bossing, ‘I want this relationship to work. Sorry po,’” she explained.
Dating rumors between Maja and Rambo started around 2010. It was also that same year when they have broken up as Maja explained that she chose her career over her love life. It was only in 2019 when the two got back together.
Maja Salvador recently left Star Magic after being with the talent management arm for 18 years. She established her own talent agency called Crown Artist Management.
She currently stars in the drama series Niña Niño which is directed by Thop Nazareno and is broadcast by TV5.
