Mother Lily on Life and Style

People in the film industry love the Regal Films matriarch Lily Yu-Monteverde as she continuously makes movies that put food on the tables of stars, directors, scriptwriters, technical staff and crew while other outfits merely produce one or two annually.

Like mother like daughter aptly describes Lily and Roselle Thio who possesses her mother’s business acumen and follows in her footsteps. “I thought Meme (Sherida) and Dondon (Ronald) will continue the legacy as Roselle opted to settle down in the US. But when she came back, she observed things at the post production laboratory and the way I deal with industry people in our house. When I noted her enthusiasm I decided to give her a hand on a movie at the planning board and she passed with flying colors. The rest is history,” said Mother Lily.
