How
did you start your movie career?
It all started like this; I followed a friend to where movie casting
was to take place, and the person who was in charge of the casting asked me to
join the set. Fortunately, I played the role given to me very well and they
loved it. That was how I started my acting career.
How
long have you been acting?
3 years and still counting….
Any
parental support:
Not really. My mum was kind of calm about it, but I was receiving
daily talks from my dad each day he gets back from work…lol
How
do you feel when facing camera on set?
At first, I wasn’t really comfortable with it because i was watching the reactions
of people behind the camera with my side eye to know if they were okay with my
facial expressions (laughter). But between my 3rd and 4th job, I was shocked;
it was as if the courage appeared from the sky.
You cannot believe the claps and encouragements I got from everyone
including the actors. The name of the film is “Helpless sisters.”
Challenges
I don't really have challenges. It’s just the usual stress of maybe having
to work with someone who would meet you and don't really know who you are and
hate you for no good reason. I know people call it “beef” but that does not disturbs me. Why hate? It is waste of energy. Why not be focused and
growing your career to become that great person you should be.
