Maja Salvador: Naka-lock pa ang puso ko ngayon

MANILA, Philippines – “Parang mahirap isingit sa taping ang landian.”

Thus quipped Maja Salvador when asked if there’s a possibility that she can develop a romantic relationship with Coco Martin in an interview with the press on Tuesday.

The ABS-CBN star will be part of ABS-CBN’s upcoming TV remake of Fernando Poe Jr.’s movie “Ang Probinsyano,” which will be headlined by Coco Martin.

The two have worked in the 2011 drama series “Minsan Lang Kitang Iibigan.” At the time, Maja was in a relationship with actor Matteo Guidicelli.

Now that they’re both single, is it possible that Maja and Coco could end up together?

To this, the 26-year-old actress said: “Tignan po natin. Naka-lock pa ang puso ko ngayon.”

“Trabaho po muna kami ni Coco. Lalo na ngayon, parang mahirap isingit sa taping ang landian, ang love life kasi mga pulis kami. Parang mahirap maglandian habang nagaaksyon-aksyon kami,” she joked.

Maja further said: “Naka-lock pa ang puso. Kalma muna tayo.”

The actress broke up with actor Gerald Anderson earlier this year. In a previous interview, Maja admitted she felt shattered and broken after her split with the “Nathaniel” star.

During the press conference on Tuesday, which was held to announce her inclusion in the Coco Martin TV series, Maja said her heart is locked not because she felt “trauma” after the breakup.

“Naka-lock lang. Para traba-trabaho po muna,” Maja said, adding she’s not stopping herself from falling in love.

“Hindi naman mapipigil ang pag-ibig. Matatanggal naman (ang lock) kapag andyan na siya,” she explained.
