I&#x27;m honored na napunta sa akin ang role na ito. Hanggang ngayon, hindi pa nagsi-sink in sa akin na ako &#x27;yung bida,&quot; she said after the press conference for &quot;The Greatest Love&quot; on Thursday. &quot;Lagi kong sinasabi sa kanila na atin ito, pamilya tayo rito, walang ibang bida kung hindi tayong lahat.&quot;&quot;Hindi ko ito kakayanin kapag ako lang, istorya ng pamilya ito. Kukuha lang ako ng lakas sa mga anak ko,&quot; she added, referring to her fellow cast members. &quot;Kasama ko si Dimples (Romana) na ang galing, Andi Eigenmann na ang galing, at sina Matt (Evans), Joshua (Garcia) at Arron (Villaflor).&quot;Sanchez said she never expected that she will have the opportunity to do a lead role in a TV series.&quot;Ang gusto ko talagang sundang yapak si Cherie Gil, &#x27;yung ganyan lang, kontrabida, steady. Kapag mawala ako, pagbalik ko kukunin at kukunin ako. Walang lokohan pero &#x27;di ako nangarap na ako ang bida. Pero thankful ako. Thank you, Lord, kasi ibinigay niya sa akin at the age of 45, after 27 years. So lutang ako, hindi ako makapaniwala,&quot; she said.Sanchez went on to note that she shares a lot of similarities with Gloria, her character in &quot;The Greatest Love.&quot;&quot;Ito &#x27;yung may pagka-Sylvia Sanchez talaga. Malapit ito sa totoong buhay ko kaya katakot-takot na emosyon, ang dami kong huhugutan at sana magustuhan ninyong lahat,&quot; she said.When asked if she feels pressured when it comes to ratings, the actress replied: &quot;Naniniwala ako sa project. First time na ganito ang story about sa isang nanay tapos ganito katindi, so &#x27;yun ang pinanghahawakan ko. Kasi ang manonood ngayon hindi na sila sa bidang sikat na sikat, hindi ba? Matatalino na ngayon ang mga televiewers, gusto na nila ay &#x27;yung storya.&quot;&quot;Puso sa puso na lang, kapag may puso ang istorya, kakagatin, lalo na ito.&quot;&quot;The Greatest Love&quot; will debut on July 18, replacing the superhero series &quot;My Super D.&quot;
