He mentioned about the Christmas song that he is re-releasing for the upcoming holiday season. “Tapos itong Christmas song ngayon that I’m going to try to release sa first week or second week of November. The title is, ‘This Christmas.’ I’m actually just re-releasing it. It was already released last 2015 but to my gut feel, wala pa masyadong exposure. So we’re going to try to expose it this year, and hopefully, mas mapick-up siya this year. [It’s] with new twist, a little bit of new arrangement, ganon,” he said.

Taking the opportunity to inspire through this film, Arnel said, “If this movie happens, I just want to dedicate this sa mga musikero natin, singers, sa mga kababayan natin na if they think at the early age or at the late age or time of their life, too late na para mag-succeed, it’s not [sic]. Anything is possible basta ano lang, sabi nga ng Journey, ‘Don’t Stop Believing,’” in reference to Journey’s hit song.
