As one of the loud and proud Bisaya celebrities in the local entertainment scene at present, for sure, many Bisdaks out there take pride in sensational content creator-turned-budding actor Esnyr Ranollo after being named as the 3rd Big Placer in “<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/pinoy-big-brother-collab">Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Collab Edition</a>,” alongside his last duo partner and fellow Bisaya, up-and-coming Kapuso star Charlie Fleming.In an episode of “Kuan On One,” he shared a light moment with host Melai Cantiveros as he looked back on how his showbiz career started.According to Esnyr, Star Cinema reached out to him in 2021 to offer him a cameo role in the romantic comedy flick “Love Is Color Blind,” which was topbilled by none other than Donny Pangilinan and Belle Mariano. It was after he had become immensely popular due to his school-themed skits that were already viral on social media at the time. He seemed initially quite hesitant to accept the role until the staff who contacted him mentioned that it would be starred by DonBelle.Hearing those had prompted him to say, “Go!” right off the bat and asked the staff about the requirements and everything that he needed to do. Even though the staff didn’t mention anything yet about the role he would portray, he told his parents that he was cast as Belle’s best friend in “He’s Into Her” for them to allow him since it was his first time in Manila and he had never been on a plane. His parents believed him, and they immediately booked tickets for him through a travel agency, helped him pack his stuff, and even sent him to the airport with his siblings and friends in tow.However, the excitement he felt was instantly replaced with dismay when, despite being picked up from the airport and taken care of, he saw his name listed alongside the art department staff and had to stay in the same accommodation as them for a few days. Donny offered to book him a hotel upon learning his predicament when they had already started filming, and he became close to him and Belle.His supposed brief stay in Manila eventually turned into a month after one of their directors decided to expand his three-second cameo stint for being such a ball of sunshine on the set of “Love Is Color Blind”. The director decided to rewrite the script, to add him to some scenes, and to even give him a character, with “Precious” and the other characters that he created in his multiverse making appearances in the film, too! It was also within that one month when he became friends with Belle and Donny.Since then, he has only been going back to his hometown of Digos City, Davao del Sur for vacation, for he has already decided to stay in Manila for good because he feels like all the opportunities are here.Watch out for “Kuan On One’s” all-new guests such as popular Bisdak artists, influencers, content creators, and beauty queens when a new episode drops every Tuesday on ABS-CBN Entertainment YouTube and iWant.
