Last Friday, the final episode of the Sine Novela starring Jennylyn Mercado and Mark Herras left a high note by beating its rival Kambal sa Uma as usual. On the other hand, Ngayon at Kailanman, the replacement for Paano Ba Ang Mangarap, is not strong enough for the ABS-CBN fantaserye.

The Heart Evangelista-JC de Vera starrer registered 16.6% compared to its rival’s 18.5%. Paano Ba Ang Mangarap usually get over 20% ratings nationwide beating Kambal sa Uma.

Dapat Ka Bang Mahalin? is still the no. 1 daytime soap opera nationwide and last Monday, it garnered 21.3% while its rival Precious Hearts Romances Presents the Bud Brothers only got 17.1%.

The newest romantic comedy series of GMA entitled Adik Sa ‘Yo also had its debut last Monday. But just like Ngayon at Kailanman, the Dennis Trillo-Jolina Magdangal-Marvin Agustin starrer was beatean by its rival. It garnered a modest 20.4% nationwide while its rival Tayong Dalawa received 33.4%.

‘Kambal sa Uma’ Beats ‘Ngayon at Kailanman’ Nationwide originally appeared on Starmometer on June 11, 2009.

Ngayon at Kailanman is originally a box-office romantic drama in 1992 starring Sharon Cuneta, Richard Gomez, Cherrie Gil and directed by Joel Lamangan. It will be adapted by GMA Network for television as part of their “Dramarama sa Hapon” block.

JC De Vera will play the role of Edwin Torres, originally played by Richard Gomez while Heart Evangelista will portray Ayra Noche, Sharon Cuneta‘s character.

At the press conference of Ngayon at Kailanman at Annabel’s Restaurant last June 3, Heart admitted that she feels the pressure of matching, if not besting, the ratings achieved by Dapat Ka Bang Mahalin, another GMA Sine Novela starring Aljur Abrenica and Kris Bernal. The said soap registered a daytime record of 30%+ in Mega Manila and it even topped the nationwide daytime tv ratings of Taylor Nelson Sofres from time to time.

“Actually, ang pressure is with Dapat Ka Bang Mahalin?, kasi siyempre, ang taas ng ratings nila na parang pang-primetime na. I think, that’s more of the pressure that I feel or we feel at the moment. So, I feel parang nagkaroon ng standard na nagte-30 plus ang rating ng non-prime. So, nandun yung pressure kung maaabot din ba namin ito. That’s it,” Heart’s confession.

Heart’s previous tv project in the kapuso network is Luna Mystika and it was a top-rater in Mega Manila. On June 8, she will embark in a new block, the daytime race, as Ngayon at Kailanman will set its pilot episode on Monday.

Sine Novela Presents Ngayon at Kailanman on GMA originally appeared on Starmometer on May 24, 2009.

Love Marie Payawal Ongpauco in real life, Heart is leaving the primetime block by starring in a GMA soap Sine Novela Presents “Ngayon at Kailanman” opposite JC de Vera.

The afternoon soap sparked a controversy between Heart and her mother studio because she refused to leave the primetime block and going into daytime seemed like a demotion on her part. But the GMA management stressed that there is no provision in her talent contract that her projects should always be in the primetime block.

After a series word-war and now a court battle between her manager Annabelle Rama and GMA SVP for Entertainment TV Wilma Galvante, Heart Evangelista, and even JC De Vera, finally accepted the role.

Women’s Health Philippines May 2009 issue is now available nationwide wherever magazines are sold.
