<p>After taking a short hiatus from the limelight, actor Daniel Padilla is back again starting last year when he returned to his first love and started performing live in various fan meets after being launched as the brand ambassador for a popular local jeans brand. This year, he returns to acting with a vengeance in his first full action series <em>Incognito.</em></p><p>“Siympre espesyal sa akin ang<em> Incognito</em> dahil ito ang aking unang serye ngayong taon, at sa tulong ng produksiyon at kapwa ko artista ay natawid namin ng maayos ang mga eksena. Disiplina at dedikasyon talaga ang ilalaan mo para matawid ito. Makikita nilang lahat ito kapag napanood na nila,” he told ABS-CBN in an exclusive interview for the JAG BLK Hardcore Denim collection.</p><div class="embed-block"><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-6" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/DFC4QfhPO0S/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=754&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A6%2C%22os%22%3A2681569%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="844" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-6" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe></div><div class="embed-block"><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script></div><div class="embed-block"><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-4" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/DEhX7Iev7G4/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=754&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A4%2C%22os%22%3A2661484%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="844" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-4" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe></div><div class="embed-block"><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script></div><p>After performing for his fans at various Daniel Padilla x JAG BLK: A Perfect Fit* fan events, DJ revealed he wants to continue doing music even with a busy acting career. &quot;I’m not saying that I’m really going to focus on it, but music is my passion and I really like to do it during my leisure time.
