Of roles and relations
Z anjoe Marudo is always ready to take on new challenges as an actor. In fact, he welcomes the characters he gets to play and while others may take issue with taking on father roles, the 32-year- old has no problem with it.
It helps that he enjoys working with kids. “Masarap kasi sila katra
baho, masaya and kadalasan, nagiging close ako sa kanila.” In fact, he spends some of his free time with his nieces and nephews.
“Sila ’yung lagi kong kasama, lagi kong kausap, iba ’yung pakiramdam,
magaan,” he said. Asked if he is already dreaming of having his own kids to take care of, Zanjoe retorted, “Hindi din naman nawawala sa isip ko na balang araw
magiging daddy ako. Pero siyempre
marami pa akong dapat i- consider. Marami pa akong pangarap para sa sarili ko.”
Light role
Zanjoe is currently seen on “Dream Dad,” where he plays a bachelor company president who is trying to move on from a heartbreak by focusing on his family.
“Mayaman ako dito eh. ’Yung mga ko dati puro mahirap, ngayon naka
suit na ako, business executive,” he said laughing.
The actor has no problems with the show being light drama.
“Actually ganito ’ yung mga gusto kong gawin. Ayokong masyadong mabibigat na tipong iyakan sobra. Ang maganda rito may kasama pa akong bata.”
Busy December
Zanjoe expects to have a busy December this year with several projects already lined up for him.
Still, he hopes to block some time for a vacation with girlfriend Bea Alonzo.
“Mahilig kasi kami mag- travel ni Bea. Pero siyempre ngayon ’di
pa sure kung paano kasi busy nga,” he said.
Zanjoe said he plans to ask ABSCBN management for a week-long break. “Sana payagan kami. Para makapag- pahinga din kami ni
Bea.”
A-OK
Zanjoe denied his three-year old with Bea is on the rocks.
He is, in fact, puzzled why such rumors are flying around. “Masaya kami eh. Siguro may mga tao lang na gustong maghiwalay kami kaya
gumagawa ng ganung isyu,” he said.
Still, he revealed that he and Bea got into an argument recently becauseb of their respective schedules.schedu
“Kasi pagkatap pagkatapos ng
teleserye niya (‘Sana Bu Bukas Pa Ang Kahapon’), na halos arawaraw ’yung taping, eh bigla
naman akong nagka- project
kaya ayun,” he said. He assures fansfan that they are both co committed to makingmakin their relationship work. “Iniintindi namin ang isa’t- isa. Kasi hindi naman pwedeng tumigil ’ yung isa sa amin (sa pagta-trabaho) para magkasama lang kami,” he said.
