Salamat, Pau!&quot; she said.She also praised Charlie for her &quot;heartfelt and riveting&quot; performance in Fan Girl.&quot;Salamat sa buong pusong pagganap. Ramdam ko ang dedikasyon mo sa proyekto, pati ang pagpunta mo sa Baclaran Church para ipagdasal ito,&quot; she said.Charlie, for her part, said the movie left a massive mark on her acting career.&quot;Sobrang nagmarka sakin ang Fan Girl not only because first major film ko, but also because of the experience. Sobrang dami ko pong natutunan while we were doing the film. Ito na ata yung pinakanahirapan ako dahil hindi lang siya emotionally challenging, physically and psychologically din. Pero sobrang worth it lahat ng experience,&quot; she said.According to the promising new actress, destiny paved the way for her to audition for the lead role.&quot;Noong una, wala po akong idea na may project na Fan Girl at matagal na silang naghahanap for the role. Sobrang biglaan po yung audition and I remember holiday nun kaya muntik na talagang di ako makapag-audition. I had no idea about the story but I went because I knew na si Direk Tonet yung director,&quot; she shared.&quot;During the audition, pagpasok ko pa lang, sabi agad, pakibura lahat ng makeup. So dun pa lang kinabahan na talaga ako. Siyempre nahiya ako sa no makeup face look dahil first time ko mag-audition nang ganun. And then after I said my lines, tawang-tawa ako sa harap nila sa sobrang awkward at hiya. But thank you Direk Tonet and to the whole team behind &#x27;Fan Girl for the trust,&quot; she added.<div> </div>
