Everyone knew that Robin Padilla had already converted to a Muslim which allows him to wed up to 4 women. Mariel Rodriguez is very aware of it even before they got married.

During the presscon of  Robin’s movie BONIFACIO: ANG UNANG PANGULO last December 16, he was asked if he has any plans of marrying his 2nd wife anytime sooner and would it be Vina Morales, ex-girlfriend and leading lady to the movie.

“Lagi kong sinasabi, handa na si Mariel sa mga ganyang bagay, alam niya kung ano ang pinasok niya bago pa kami magpakasal. Ang tanong diyan, kung papayag ba si Vina, siya lang ang pwedeng sumagot niyan,” answers Robin.

They were teased more by the press when Vina answered, “Naku, hindi ko alam ang isasagot ko. Ikaw, akala ko nagbago ka na? Ituluy-tuloy mo na yan. Ha-hahaha!”

Vina thinks that it is not going to work out having two wives. When assured that it’s not going to be (because of Muslim tradition), she added “Magiging magulo ‘yun! Du’n magsisimula ang gulo! Ha-hahaha!”

The first wife Mariel Rodriguez on the other hand was just in the dressing room and was advised by Robin not to come out. She was also requested to give the moment to Bonifacio and Oriang ( Robin and Vina’s role).

Vina Morales was a personal choice of Robin Padilla to portray the character Oriang. Robin said the chemistry between them was already proven in the past and they still believe that there is a spark between the two.
Asked about how does it feel working with Binoe again, Vina shared “Hindi ko ine-expect na magiging ganito ulet kami ka-close. Kasi, matagal kaming hindi nagkita, nagkatrabaho, and siyempre, hindi naman ganu’n kaganda ang paghihiwalay namin before. Honestly, there was this time na habang nagba-bonding kami while we were shooting, humingi naman siya ng tawad. So, napatawad ko naman siya.
“Really, talagang maganda ang aming pagsasamahan ngayon, and I hope it will stay this way and we’re so excited for the movie, actually. ‘Yun ang pinaka-importante sa lahat and the friendship is still there,” said Vina.
The movie, Bonifacio: Ang Unang Pangulo is an official entry of RCP Production for MMFF 2014. Together in the cast are Isko Moreno, Romel Padilla, RJ Padilla, Joem Bascon, Isabel Oli, Lou Veloso, Ping Medina and Jerico Rosales.
