Anyone who has had to deal with a difficult boss will relate to the character of Laida (played by Sarah Geronimo), an editorial assistant who has to gratify all the demands of a magazine publisher named Miggy (played by John Lloyd Cruz). They initially have gaps between them but later on, they come to realize the good qualities of each other while working on the magazine called Bachelor.


This is the first time that John Lloyd and Sarah will be paired up on the big screen and both of them are excited to see the reactions of their fans.

 

"I am very proud of this movie, as usual, Direk Cathy is superb and si Sarah, ang galing galing niya. I never expected that A Very Special Love will be very special to us and hopefully, sa mga manonood din na sumusuporta sa akin, kay Direk [Cathy] at kay Sarah through the years, in our individual efforts," says John Lloyd.

 

Sarah, on the other hand, cherishes the good memories that she had while making this. "Nag-iisa si John Lloyd Cruz, hindi mo matatawaran talaga ang galing niya at napaka-professional. It's a dream come true sa akin na mabigyan ng pagkakataon na makatrabaho siya at sana, maulit pa."

 

When asked whether her character will fulfill her own dreams in the movie, Sarah could only say, "Siyempre lahat naman tayo we root for Laida na matupad na ma-in love sa kanya ang kanyang Prince Charming na si Miggy ‘di ba? Pero ‘yan iiwan ko na para sa sagutin ng pelikula."


Box-office director Cathy Garcia Molina and John Lloyd have collaborated on several movies already such as Close To You (2006) and last year's box-office winner One More Chance. But this is the first time that Direk Cathy has worked with Sarah Geronimo.

 

With A Very Special Love being part of Star Cinema's 15th anniversary, Direk Cathy can't help but be proud of this film, especially since this is her fifth project with ABS-CBN's film outfit. "Siyempre po natutuwa ako na makasama yung pelikulang ‘to, ang A Very Special Love sa 15th anniversary ng Star Cinema. It's special in its own way, lahat ng nagshoot ng pelikulang ‘to with big hearts gave so much for the movie and I think mararamdaman n'yo yon. Thank you na na-recognize yung movie as worthy of being part of the 15th anniversary of Star Cinema."

 

A co-production of Star Cinema and Viva Films, A Very Special Love opens in theaters nationwide starting Wednesday (July 30).
