Viveika, who played her Yaya Sabel in the hit daytime drama, couldn’t help but gush about their reunion. “Lumaki na po siya. Lumaking maganda! Masaya akong makasama siya ulit. Siyempre, lumaking mahusay, magaling, at isa na rin siyang ina ngayon. Lahat kami happy kasi ‘pag nakakasama ko itong batang ‘to, laging may magandang changes sa buhay niya. I’m so happy for her,” said Viveika, who portrays Marites in <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/articles-news/more-darna-tv-series-stills-to-elevate-your-excitement-16746">Darna: The TV Series</a>.Besides excitement, Janella also feels a bit of challenge portraying Darna’s arch nemesis in this huge project, “Ito na naman ako sa back-and-forth ng dalawang characters pero exciting ‘yung role kasi maraming layers ‘yung characters ko dito.” Her last TV portrayal in <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/thekillerbride">The Killer Bride</a> also required switching on and off between two characters.On Janella’s team are Marc Manicad as Regina (Valentina’s alter-ego)’s bodyguard Ali and Dawn Chang as the secretary of the town mayor. Joj is Narda’s best friend, Mara. LA plays Richard, who works as part of Narda’s rescue team.The cast has been working on the series for four months now, thus the family-like bond. Joj mentioned they do activities like fitness and basketball on days off, and even share each other’s diet regimen. They’ve come to know each other’s traits as well, as Viveika put it, “Ito ‘yung bahay mo, sila ‘yung family mo, neighbors, co-workers mo. Sa araw-araw, kahit hindi mo pa sila kaeksena, meron na kayong bonding at pagsasamahan… Mas nagiging pamilyar kayo sa isa’t isa.”One thing they’ve discovered about Janella is her quick ability to adapt to the demands of her role. They jestingly call her “The Fastest Celebrity.” Dawn explained, “Sa soundstage kasi, ‘yung set namin dun ready na, walang sinasayang na oras. Si Janella, mga 102 sequences in 2 hours! Ganun kabilis si Janella Salvador kaya she is the fastest celebrity of them all.”Joj seconded, “At ‘yung kanyang mga linya, mahahaba per sequences. Winner, Jea!” Then, Mark further teased, “Ibang Janella ‘yung mapapanood n’yo dito. Abangan n’yo yung reveal ni Valentina kung gaano kaganda ‘yung shot, grabe!”Now we go to the fun challenges requested by KUMUnizens! The first dare was to take on the “Bad Romance” Challenge.” Since Mark laughed a little, he accepted the consequence to dance to “Paru-Paro G.”And because Dawn, the dance guru, was there, she didn’t let pass the opportunity to teach her co-stars her popular “Love Me Like You Do” choreography. They danced in pairs starting with Dawn and Marc, then Viveika and Mark, and lastly, Joj and LA – complete with lifting!Also one of the most requested acts that night was Janella’s version of “Ginseng Strip 2002,” which was Joshua Garcia’s first trending TikTok video. Little things to make JoshNella lovers happy!As the bunch took on another “Paru-Paro G” Challenge, coming together in pairs in front of the camera, netizens got a surprise treat when Joshua joined Janella in the last part.
