Hindi ko siya nakikitang ganun so yun din yung kumbaga naging conscious kami na limitahan natin yung merong side natin na may kilig o ano. Mas into horror tayo dito. Yun naman yung sinabi ng script. Yun naman yung sinasabi ng directors namin so yun lang yung medyo trinabaho namin,” he explained. </p><div><br/></div><p>The <em>Shake, Rattle, and Roll </em>stars also revealed getting minor injuries while shooting their episode, which involves them doing a lot of physical scenes. “Meron ako (sugat) actually. Medyo naging collection namin siya while doing the film (laughs) . Yung mga pasa kada uuwi,” Francine added. </p><div><br/></div><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/2021/7/23/fresh-scoops/francine-diaz-reveals-she-had-a-third-eye-hindi-194811"><strong>READ: Francine Diaz reveals she had a third eye: ‘Hindi ko alam kung naniniwala kayo’</strong></a></div><div><br/></div><p>Having been busy with promotions for their MMFF entry since last month, Francine revealed that she and Seth have actually already exchanged Christmas gifts even before December 25. “What’s the best material gift I’ve received? Well, hindi ako yung type na mahilig sa material na regalo talaga. Pero ngayon kasi yung gusto kong material gift, nakuha ko na. Nabigay na niya yung Christmas gift niya sa akin (laughs). Yung Skull Panda na para siyang snow globe. So yeah, I got it na. Yun yung best material na Christmas gift from my point of view. Nasa kuwarto na siya,” she told <strong>PUSH ABS-CBN.</strong></p><div><br/></div><p>As an eyewear collector, Seth said he was happy with the shades that Francine got for him this year.
