JK Labajo
KINARIR ng award-winning singer-actor na si Juan Karlos “JK” Labajo ang pagri-research tungkol sa buhay ng dating senador na si Ninoy Aquino.
Aminado si JK na natakot at na-challenge siyang gampanan ang kanyang karakter sa pelikulang “Ako Si Ninoy” dahil bukod sa mahirap nga ay kontrobersyal at complicated pa ito.
Kaya naman ginawa niya ang lahat ng kanyang makakaya para mabigyan ng hustisya ang pagganap niya bilang Ninoy Aquino sa musical drama na “Ako Si Ninoy” mula sa direksyon ni Vince Tañada.
Sey ng binata, excited na siyang mapanood ng sambayanang Filipino ang kanilang pelikula dahil sigurado siyang napakaraming matututunan ng mga Pinoy sa “Ako Si Ninoy” kabilang na ang mga sakripisyo ng mga ordinaryong mamamayan pati na ng mga bayaning OFW.
“We really put in so much effort and then…grabe, grabe, grabe yung pinasok namin for this film,” ang sabi ni JK nang makachikahan ng press sa premiere night ng movie last February 18, sa Power Plant Mall ng Rockwell Center, Makati City.
Dagdag pa niya, “And I feel like the people deserve to see this film. Kasi it’s really well thought of. So ayun, I’m really excited honestly.”
Sa tanong nga kung nag-research siya at inaral mabuti ang karakter ni Ninoy Aquino, “Definitely, definitely. Kasi nung binigay po sa akin ni Direk Vince yung character, I mean siyempre as an actor, it’s really a scary character to play.
“It’s a real person e, as compared to playing a character na fictional, right? Tapos, kinausap ko si Direk on how close does he want me to act as Sir Ninoy.

“And then sabi niya I don’t have to act as Ninoy as… actually at all. It’s not really parang, I don’t have to do it a hundred percent depiction of Sir Ninoy.
“Basically in a sense parang… Ninoy is acting as Juan Karlos,” aniya pa.
Maraming natutunan si JK habang ginagawa ang “Ako Si Ninoy”, “Well, definitely one thing that made me relate to Sir Ninoy was that he spent most of his life with many people not believing him, and not many people listening to him. And in some sort of way, I can relate to that.
“Kasi alam mo yun, especially in the showbiz industry, issues come up and all of these different accusations, and then even though you know the truth, sometimes people just don’t wanna believe you.

“And parang grabe yung isinakripisyo niya para sa bayan. As in pinili niyang bumalik ng Pilipinas kesa sa mag-live happily ever after with his family sa Boston. So I mean, grabe yung sakripisyong ginawa niya,” lahad pa ng binata.
Samantala, may nagtanong naman kay JK kung okay na sila ng ka-batch niya sa “The Voice Kids” na si Darren Espanto na nakasagutan at nakaaway niya noon sa social media.
“I don’t wanna talk about it. We are… but I don’t wanna waste my time there,” ang nakangiting sagot ng aktor at singer.
Showing na ang “Ako Si Ninoy” sa February 22 sa mga sinehan nationwide.
