They say, "life begins at 40."

And to welcome his 40th birthday with a bang, Aga Muhlach brought 80 of his family and friends to Camarines Sur for three days  (August 11-14) of  non-stop parties, R & R, and extreme watersports.

From being a famous Bagets member in the '80s to a most sought-after leading man in the '90s, Aga has already proven his worth as a dramatic actor.

At present, he's more focused on his family life. He has been happily married to beauty queen Charlene Gonzalez since May 2001. They have seven-year-old twins, Atasha and Andres. Aga is also the dad of Igi Boy Muhlach, his son with Janice de Belen. As expected, all of them went to the Camsur event.

Other relatives who joined him in his three-day celebration were his dad Cheng Muhlach, siblings Albert and Arlene, mother-in-law Elvie Gonzalez, and cousin Liezl Martinez, who came with husband Albert and their kids.

His friends—direk Joyce Bernal, CamSur Governor Lray Villafuerte, his manager Ethel Ramos, Fr. Tito Caluag, Joross Gamboa, Paolo Paraiso, Mons and Xander Tantoco, and photographer Raymund Isaac—were also present.

A few friends from the media were invited, but he politely requested that ambush interviews be avoided.

THE ACTIVITIES. For the venue, Aga chose Camsur Watersports Complex, where he hones his skill as a wakeboarder. Aga's enthusiasm for the sport was evident when he took the effort to teach his guests some basic lessons every morning and afternoon.

Come night time, Aga and wife Charlene mounted parties. The main event was his actual birthday celebration, which took place on the night of the second day, August 12. His family and friends prepared an AVP (audio visual presentation) featuring the funniest facts and anecdotes about the birthday boy. To read about some of them, click this link.

There was singing and dancing, which was gamely participated by Aga himself and his mini-me, Andres. Charlene cheered for the dad-son tandem!

The whole entourage returned to Manila last August 14, with the wakeboarding fever and lotsa interesting stories to tell about the birthday boy.

Belated happy birthday, Aga!

    Aga is one of the very few superstars who remained HUMBLE. Hindi nagfo-flaunt ng kayamanan and marunong siyang mag-share sa kapwa, napaka-simple ng lifestyle niya

    at pagka-mabait niya, genuine, hindi mo kakikitaan ng pagka-plastik just like those na trying-hard magpakabait pero halatang pilit!

    i really admire Aga, very much like my ultimate idol VILMA SANTOS! pareho sila, kaya ang longevity nila sa showbiz industry na-stretch ng napakatagal...

    at im very happy kasi ang two of may favorite stars ay matagal na din magkaibigan! di man nagkakasama sa mga projects di nawala yung maganda nilang pagkakaibigan!

    good luck Aga, napakaganda at napakasaya ng buhay ng pamilya mo, and ang career mo ay masagana pa rin! the Vilmanians are very proud of you ang layo na ng narating eversince makatrabaho mo ang STAR FOR ALL SEASONS nung kabataan mo... you've become ONE OF, IF NOT THE BEST ACTOR OF YOUR GENERATION!

    kwento ko rin lang we went wakeboarding sa Lago de Oro in Batangas nung May, tinanong namin kung andun si Aga, sabi sa amin late daw kami ng dating ng isang araw, sabi nga sa amin lagi nga daw hinahanap dun si Aga?

    grabe ang hirap pala magwakeboarding, sakit sa braso at likod!

    is it true, he'll finally be doing a soap opera for abs-cbn?

    i got a chance to meet him once, sa UST pa yun, sinama ako ng high school friend ko na student na sa UST, sa USTv Awards. nakakagulat ang response ng mga Thomasians sa kanya, kilala nila si Aga, ganda ng aura niya nung nasa stage siya, very engaging and personable napansin talaga namin.

    Mavy is Mestizo
    brown and wavy hair
    brown eyes
    physical features na present sa Mom niya na si Carmina, at typical features ng mga may lahing spanish tulad ng mga parents ni Carmina. hawig nga ni Mavy brother ni Carmina, parehong wavy hair and matangos na nose.

    identified lang kasi ang CUTE na dimples and tisoy kay Aga kaya iyan may ganyan na napapansin, pero maliban dun, wala na.

    Spanish ang tatay ni Mina, at may lahing spanish din ang Nanay niya, wag na kayong magtaka kung bakit Mestizo ang isa sa mga anak niya!

    showbiz writers/reporters know better, sila ang unang makakapansin or mang-iintriga nito kung totoo.

    masyado naman cheap ng intrigang ito, kung hanggang comments lang sa picture ang pagbabasehan

    baybrook: dahil kasi sa mga coincidences

    Pero if you look closely at Mavy, yung dimples and pagiging tisoy niya, na-inherit niya sa Mom niya, plus pareho ng smile, eyes, curly brown hair! magkakaroon siguro ako ng doubt, kung si Mavy, walang kamukha either kay Mina or Zoren?

    tama nga yung tanong, bakit ie-expose ni Carmina sa media ang mga anak? Bakit nila iri-risk ang maayos na life ng mga batang ito para ma-iskandalo kung may itinatago silang ganyan?

    sa mundo pa ng showbiz, na ma-magnify lahat at nakikita, sa tingin ko napakahirap magtago ng ganyang sikreto, at yang mga sinasangkot ng iba sa intriga, paano nila nagagawang mag co-exist sa industriyang ganyan kaliit at lahat magkakakilala, at higit sa lahat, napapanood sila ng milyon-milyong tao!

    hindi daw pwedeng ilabas ang mga grand chika tulad nito, untouchable daw kasi si Aga kasi may grand protection. showbiz columnists are not allowed to talk about this...

    but yet, isang PEPster lang like that frustrated rockstar ang makakuha ng scoop na ganito, at siya lang of all people mag-a-anravel ng pinakatago-tagong sikreto sa showbiz

    so lame...

    found this comment:

    Because of his dimples Maverick looks like Aga.If the resemblance makes them mag-ama, then puede nating sabihin na si Luigi na anak ni Aga kay Janice ay di tunay na anak ni Aga kasi walang nakuhang feature ni Aga.Illogical thinking huh?!

    Carmina's maternal grandmother has a twins, so the family was expecting na may magkaka anak ng kambal sa generation nila Carmina.So may lahi talaga sila ng kambal.Si Charlene ganun din daw.

    ida-drag ba ni Carmina twins niya sa limelight kung ganyan pagkatao ng mga anak niya, mga bastardo? kung may nililihim sila edi sana tinago na lang niya yang kambal sa publiko, bilang magulang ayaw mo naman sigurong mapahiya ang mga anak mo diba?

    may naibulong lang sa iba, pinaniwalaan na, uto-uto

    hindi hereditary ang pangkakaroon ng twins, misconception lang iyon, ang hereditary na gene ay ang pagha-HYPER OVULATE, babae lang ang nag-oovulate kaya ang mother lang ang pwedeng magkaroon ng ganoong gene at maipasa niya sa anak niya, Fraternal Twinning is hereditary on the mother's side ONLY! kaya di pwedeng i-link yan sa tatay

    kaya yang mga chismis niyong iyan na kinokonek niyo kay Aga ay invalid. probability pa na magkakaroon siya ng 2 sets of twins, in one year?

    parang nanalo ka na sa super lotto... TWICE in your lifetime, hehe

    plus, yang DIMPLES na iyan, isa iyang DOMINANT trait, at isang common birth defect, kaya kahit sino pwedeng magkaroon niyan!

    napadaan lang pala si rockstar 8 dito kaya nag-comment na lang ng di related sa pep article, Lol!

    Makapanira lang talaga, siguro yung idolo mo, kahit anong gawing papansin sa showbiz, di na talaga pinapansin kaya ang gawi mo e manira na lang at mandamay pabagsak! Lol

    grand protection? BUT THEN THE GRAND CHIKA WAS DIVULGED TO YOU?

    Hindi pwedeng ilabas lahat ng grand chika? BUT THEN, YOU CAN FREELY MAKE A COMMENT ABOUT IT HERE, pero yung mga showbiz people quiet lang?

    di naman ako fan ni Aga... YOU MUST BE A HATER, fan ka lang siguro ng mga napag-iwanan ni Aga?

    EXACTLY, there's more than meets the eye. kaya wag papadala sa mga nakikita lang na pictures, it's not like one in a million lang ang nagkaka-dimple sa mundong ito, noh!

    i have a dimple sa kaliwang pisngi ko, may chance kaya na half-brother ko si Aga? -roffling-

    may ganyan lang na reaction kasi sa pictures na nakikita na may hawig, enough na ba yung may dimples ka lang at tisoy anak ka na ni Aga?

    nung 2006 Carmina nag-guest sa sitcom ni Aga dati, walang ilangan, so i don't think meron silang ganyang issue...
