Enrique Gil on the success of ‘Forevermore’: ‘Feeling ko nabuhayan ulit ako’

Enrique Gil says he is inspired to work even harder because of the success of his soap.

Enrique Gil remarked that he is truly elated with the success of his primetime soap Forevermore. The actor said that though there were apprehensions initially, he was grateful that the show become an instant hit among televiewers. "I am super happy kasi nong una binigyan kami ng show with a very good slot, with a very good director, siyempre before ‘yung show ‘yung pressure kasi pag hindi nag-work kami ‘yung problema,” he said.

He admitted that he felt nervous at first if his team up with Liza Soberano would work on TV. "Siyempre bagong love team pa, first time pa kaming magkasama ni Liza, nobody was really sure kung maghi-hit ang Forevermore."

When their ratings hit 30%, the actor couldn't be any happier. "So nong malaman naming pumalo ng 30 ang Forevermore, I was like ‘Oh My God! Thank you so much!’ Parang ito lang talaga ang hinihingi namin at nabigay namin sa amin."

Enrique said that the success of his show has given him the motivation to work even harder. "Feeling ko nabuhayan ulit ako. I feel like I want to work more. Feeling ko na I have more drive compared to before. There is a reason that I want to work more now dahil sa success ng Forevermore."

On what to expect more from the show, the actor shared, "More kiligan, more heartaches, more sad moments and more funny moments. Siyempre kasama ‘yan sa isang show, ‘yung details siyempre hindi pa namin masasabi so abangan niyo na lang ang Forevermore.”
