When she was first told by Star Cinema about the movie two years ago, she thought it was joke. Even during the story conference for A Love Story, Angelica still didn’t believe that the project was pushing through. She only believed it when she finally arrived on the set on their first shooting day and the cameras started rolling.

          The movie also reunites Angelica with Maricel Soriano, who played Angelica’s mother in the movie Separada and her sister in the TV series, Vietnam Rose. Now they play rivals for the love of one man.

          “Whenever I work with Mama (that’s how she calls Maricel), I always feel so grateful. We had a very good working relationship when we did Vietnam Rose. And even with our past movies before, maganda na talaga ang samahan namin ni Mama,” says Angelica.

          “Mama is like an on and off button. She can be your mother. You can tell her stories. She wants you to tell her anything and everything about yourself, about your life, even your problems. As a daughter, whenever I have a misunderstanding with my real life mom, I would ask for her advice on what I should do. How would I say sorry to my mom? Then she would tell me, ‘Huwag ganoon anak.’ Lagi niya akong tinuturuan,” she explains.

          She even consults her Mama Maricel about her lovelife. “She likes it when you ask her for advice. Curious siya on what is happening in your life.”
