On March 9, Kapuso artist Kelvin Miranda admitted that he felt challenged shifting from a younger role to a mature role.
During the media conference for Mano Po Legacy: Her Big Boss, Miranda compared his role in Stories From The Heart to his newest role in the upcoming Kapuso series.
“Siguro sa akin ‘yung pinaka-challenge ay ‘yung kung papaano ko panghahawakan ‘yung pagiging matured, kasi last na nagawa ko na proyekto ay talagang sobrang impulsive ng character ko.
“So itong bagong character ko naman, si Nestor Lorenzo, ay sobra layo niya sa nakaraan. Kailangan ko pag-isipan lahat ng gagawin ko. Lahat ng sasabihin ko, bawat reaction ko, para mararamdaman ng taong kausap ko.”
He confessed that he had always wanted to work with Bianca Umali.
“Syempre hindi na tayo magpapaligoy-ligoy, syempre nakakatuwa. Totoong natutuwa ako kasi dati pa naman, noon pa naman, nababanggit ko na sa mga interviews na gusto ko siya maka-trabaho, and ito na ‘yung pagkakataon na lubos akong nagpapasalamat na binigay sa akin ‘yung pagkakataon. Hindi pa rin masyadong nag-sisink in sa akin na nakatrabaho ko na siya ngayon.”
He then detailed his character’s family-oriented side and how it resonates with his personal life.
“Mas maraming beses na pagkakaparehas namin is ‘yung kung ano ‘yung iisipin ng taong, mararamdaman ng taong kausap ko, ng taong kasama ko. Mas doon kami nagtatagpo ni Nestor, tsaka ‘yung pagiging family oriented niya at ‘yung pagmamahal niya sa taong minamahal niya.”
