It was the first time for GMA-7 to feature two-teleseryes in one grand press conference. It was for the grand premiere of two Sine Novela series Kaya Kong Abutin Ang Langit and Tinik Sa Dibdib which started September 28, 2009 in the Dramarama sa Hapon block of the Kapuso station.
Now in its third year, GMA-7 continues to give quality programs in the afternoon timeslot.
“Sa pagbubukas ng bagong season ng Sine Novela, tinutupad po ng GMA ang kanilang pangako na makapgbibigay sila ng magagandang remakes sa hapon,” said Iza Calzado, the lead actress of Kaya Kong Abutin Ang Langit, which was orginally played by the Diamond Star Maricel Soriano in the movie version.
In Tinik sa Dibdib, Sunshine Dizon portrays the role originally played by Superstar Nora Aunor in its film version
Iza shares to the press present at the press con, “Alam niyo po, kami ni Sunshine, super excited namin.” Aside from this being their first Sine Novelas, Iza says it’s made more special by the fact that they’re doing it at the same time, and back-to-back.
Sunshine agrees with Iza: “I also feel the same way. It’s such an honor to be playing another classic by Ms Nora Aunor.”
According to GMA-7′s SVP for Entertainment TV, Ms Wilma Galvante, the network is too happy and thankful for prime talents Iza and Sunshine for accepting these afternoon teleseryes. Ms Galvante even went on to say that as far as casting is concerned, Iza and Sunshine are perfect choices for their respective roles.
