“Mas mapupusok po ang mga kabataan ngayon. Iba po yung generation namin sa older generation and it is very alarming po na lalo pang tumataas ang rate ng teenage pregnancy sa bansa,” Andi shares her thoughts on teenage pregnancy.

“That’s why I’m happy to portray this role. Hindi lamang po ito basta dark drama with heavy scenes, it aims po na kahit papano, ma-reach yung mga kabataang tulad ko na in every action we do, there are consequences and responsibilities we must consider,” she added as she hopes of good feedbacks from the show.

For the first time Andi will be paired with Felix Roco. Felix also stars in Rosalka, an afternoon show in ABS-CBN with Empress. Now with their first team-up, anticipation of good performance is not impossible since they both come from a clan of showbiz greats. Adding to the high expectations is the high rating of the first episode of Your Song Presents Andi which garnered a score of 11% leaving Reel Love Presents Tween Hearts of GMA 7 with 8.9% last October 10,2010 based on the national ratings provided by Kantar Media.

This Sunday in Your Song, Andi will play Vivian. Vivian comes from a wealthy family. She gets everything that she wants.

This will lead her parents to disown her. Gentleman as he is, Edgar will take the responsibility and shall bring Vivian to their humble home.

Taking the lead role of Richard, a gangster running away from the murderous City Death Squad, Felix shows an undeniable range and versatility for what many call one of the most challenging performances ever taken on by an actor. Because Engkwentro was shot a la one continuous take, Felix styled his performance like a stageplay – memorizing all his lines and deeply internalizing his character. With no room for mistakes, Felix delved into the role – doing his own stunts and narrowly avoiding injuries on set.

In order to prepare for his performance, Felix drew from his own past experiences. A former fraternity member, Felix overcame his “wild” younger days and has now transformed himself into a very professional, serious actor. He wants young viewers to follow his example of conquering challenges and chasing dreams.

Felix Roco topbills the award-winning indie film, ENGKWENTRO – in theaters December 11, 12 & 13 at SM Cinemas in Mall of Asia, North Edsa, MegaMall, Cebu, Davao, Iloilo and Bacoor. Inspired by true events, Engkwentro follows the last 24 hours of two teenage brothers on opposite sides of a gang war. With a career-making performance by young heartthrob Felix Roco and directed by 22-year-old Pepe Diokno, the film took home two awards at September’s Venice Film Festival — including the Horizons Prize for new trends in cinema, and the US$ 100,000 Lion of the Future – “Luigi de Laurentiis” Award for best debut film.
