“There are times that I do want to stop. I would tell my mom, ‘I think ayaw ko na. I think this is the end for me. Maybe I want to try something else with my life.’ But then ABS-CBN always gives me a reason to go back,” he candidly admitted.
With a renewed sense of purpose and direction, the multi-talented artist shared his aspirations for the coming year. While music and singing will always hold a special place in his heart, Estrada expressed a desire to focus on acting and delve deeper into this facet of his craft.
“Yung first love ko po talaga is, of course, music, singing, guitar, instruments. Pero ngayon po parang naisip ko na kaya ko naman mag-acting. Kaya ko naman siya i-try and pagsabayin. More of acting talaga ako this year,” he disclosed.

“Meron po akong solo na movie pero hindi po talaga ako ‘yung bidang bida. I am not sure kung kailan ipapalabas but in this movie, wala po akong love team dito. It’s just mostly me,” he intriguingly shared.
As KD Estrada embarks on this new chapter in his career, he is filled with excitement, determination, and gratitude for the opportunities that lie ahead.
