Kapuso loveteam RitKen has another complex project following their pairing in My Special Tatay and it seemed like GMA Network is playing favorites.
However, the two dismissed the thought. According to Ken Chan, every talent of GMA Network is given projects.
“Dito sa GMA umiikot kami. Lahat kasi kami talaga nabibigyan ng pagkakataon na magkaron ng mga teleserye.
“Sguro nagkakataon lang na wala kaming ginagawa ni Rita ng mga ganitong buwan. Kaya siguro sa amin nabibigay yung project.
“Dahil yung iba naming actors na kasama eh may ginagawa sila. Natsatsamba lang siguro na samin na napupunta yung mga ganitong istorya. At sobrang swerte namin na sa ‘min nabigay ‘to kasi napakaganda talaga,” pointed the male star.
Meanwhile, his onscreen partner, Rita Daniela, is happy that they landed the project. Amid the growing Kapuso talents, they were still given the chance to highlight their skills as artists.
“Syempre sobrang grateful talaga. Kasi alam namin ‘yun na bilang artista eh marami kaming pinagpipilian. ‘Yun na lang masasabi ko. Kaya naman sobra naming ginagalingan sa totoo lang,” said the female star.
Rita also pointed that they owe o to the Network to at least do their best since they were given opportunity after opportunity to showcase their abilities.
“Kasi parang hiya na lang namin ‘yun sa management at sa Network dahil pinagkakatiwalaan nila kami sa ganitong klaseng proyekto. Kaya naman sobrang ginagalingan namin ni Ken para hindi sila mapahiya sa desisyon nila na kami ang pinili nila. Takot kasi kami ni Ken na may madidisappoint kami,” she added.
They also denied the speculation that Kapuso artists are getting jealous since they all get the edgy and meaty projects.
“Wala din talaga. In fact, very excited pa nga sa show namin. Lalo na at alam natin na na-delay ang premiere nito. So isa sila sa mga nangamusta kung ano na ang nangyari. At ang sarap sa feeling na nakasubaybay din sila para sa’yo,” Rita stressed.
Ken also mentioned that Kapuso stars were there to always support them whenever they land huge projects.
“Wala naman. Honestly ang nakakatuwa dito eh hindi namin nararamdaman yon (inggit) sa mga kapwa namin artista sa GMA. Never. Actually lahat sila nagcocongrats samin. Kahit sina kuya Tom, ate Carla, minessage ako na nagcocongrats sila,” Ken said.
That is why the two are overwhelmed by the support and admiration from their colleagues over at GMA Network.
“Ang sarap lang sa pakiramdam na very supportive talaga yung mga kapatid ko dito sa GMA. Ansarap lang sa pakiramdam na hindi mo mararamdaman yung selos o yung naiinggit. Walang ganun eh, wala talaga,” Ken added.
Also, Rita believes that the Network will also give other Kapuso talents their chance to shine soon. And once they get their opportunity, Rita and Ken will be there to give their all-out support as well.
“I’m very sure na marami din kaming kapwa artista sa GMA na mabibigyan ng gantong kagandang mga konsepto. At magiging supportive din kami. Wala din ever na mangyayaring selosan. I guess nature na siya sa GMA na maging supportive sa bawat isa.”
Currently, RitKen is top-billing in the latest advoca-serye of GMA Network titled, Ang Dalawang Ikaw.
In the story, Nelson (Ken) plays the husband of Mia (Rita) who is suffering from a dissociative identity disorder.
