MANILA, Philippines — Kapamilya actress Melai Cantiveros is game to do the "Tanging Ina" remake but with a consent from its original actress Ai-Ai delas Alas.
During the recent media conference of her Bisaya-themed talk show "Kuan-On-One," Melai was asked, “Ang daming nagpu-push na ikaw daw ang mag-remake ng ‘Tanging Ina,' anong masasabi mo du’n?”
“Uhmm, siyempre, tanging ina n’yo rin!” she jokingly said.
“Kung i-offer sa ‘kin, why not? Sobrang happy pero hindi natin para i-bypass si Ms. Ai Ai delas Alas kasi siya talaga ang ating Queen of Comedy," she added.
She also mentioned other comediennes and she will do the remake without hurting others' feelings.
“Ang dami na niyang napatunayan. Nandiyan pa sina Ate Pokey (Pokwang), sina Miss Eugene Domingo,” she explained.
“Kaya kung i-kuan why not, pero wala tayong mga hurt na mga tao,” she added.
