- Celebrities Anne Curtis and Dingdong Dantes set to show unique team-up on “Sid & Aya”
- “Sid & Aya” tag-lined itself contradicting to a love story
Viewers today have gotten used to open endings in movies or TV shows, as they’ve tagged the happy ones “overrated” and cliche. Most of the independent films we see today are designed like that in order to place questions in the minds of the movie-goers for them to conclude the story however they want it.
VIVA Films latest big-screen offering “Sid & Aya,” parallels to that of the works we’ve mentioned above as its title follows up with a somewhat disclaimer: (Not A Love Story).
VIVA Films brings together on screen the Princess of All Media, Anne Curtis, and the 49th Box Office Entertainment Awards’ Film Actor of the Year, Dingdong Dantes in this year’s much-awaited romantic-drama, “SID & AYA (NOT A LOVE STORY),” which opens in theaters nationwide on May 30.
From the screenplay and direction of box-office writer / director Irene Villamor (Camp Sawi and Meet Me In St. Gallen), Anne and Dingdong went to Japan to shoot some of the movie’s important scenes.
In the story, Dingdong plays Sid, an insomniac, while Anne portrays the role of Aya, the mysterious woman Sid meets and asks to spend time with him as he battles with those long, sleepless and empty nights.
Anne and Dingdong first worked together years ago in the teen-oriented TV show, “TGIS,” where they were given different partners. “SID & AYA” is their first-ever screen pairing much to the delight of their huge following. Based on the trailer released recently by VIVA Films, Anne and Dingdong displayed such strong chemistry, especially in scenes that are sizzlingly romantic.
But as Dingdong’s character Sid tells us, “Hindi naman lahat ng may ‘I love you,’ ay love story na, eh.”
