As part of the cast of the upcoming new barkada film Call Me Papi, actor Enzo Pineda shared how he felt now that the public will finally be able to watch the film he has been working on since 2019.

“We’re really thankful to our producers for making this film happen. They really felt na isa itong kuwento na dapat naming ipakita sa mga tao. So they fought for the film para matapos ito and now we’re showing so I’m very excited and at the same time kinakabahan rin ako ng konti because I really love the film and I’m looking forward to for it to be successful. Sana magustuhan ito ng mga tao,” he shared during the Call Me Papi presscon held earlier this month.

Just like his role as Sonny in the Viva Films project, Enzo admitted he has also learned a lot about how to love the right way through experiences in relationships. The 32-year-old actor is currently in a relationship with actress Michelle Vito.

“Similar kami in terms of siguro pagdating sa pagmamahal. Nagkataon na before sa akin na, lahat naman siguro tayo may taong minahal tayo na mali or nasaktan tayo but everything happens for a reason. Yun yung mangyayari sa character ko.

“And I guess there was a time na masyadong nag-focus sa pagmamahal instead of focusing on myself, my goals, my dreams. Kumbaga parang naging sentro kasi yun ng buhay ko before. No regrets naman pero nangyayari yun. So siguro yun lang makukuha nilang lesson from my character, na to focus muna on your dreams and goals before you can get to focus on your loved ones,” he explained.

During the past three years, Enzo said he was able to focus on his other priorities aside from his acting career.

“Siguro because of the pandemic, I got to realize a lot of things and put aside all the superficial things na I thought was important before. I guess partly also even also somewhat yung pagiging celebrity, the fame, the fortune, mas naitabi ko yun and just focus on doing good work. And giving more time to my family. And actually mas naging okay yung career ko because nag-focus ako sa mga bagay na mas importante talaga.

“And siguro I have to thank my family also, my girlfriend Michelle (Vito) kasi isa sila sa mga taong who stuck with me until now to the end. Tapos, may mga bad habits ako before na sila mismo nag-reset sa akin. So I’m not the person I am right now if it wasn’t because of them,” he admitted. 

Watch Enzo Pineda along with co-stars Albie Casiño, Royce Cabrera, Lharby Policarpio, and Aaron Concepcion in Call Me Papi. Directed by Alvin Yapan. Opens in cinemas starting December 7 under Viva Films.
