“Maraming batang riles ang nangangarap maging teacher, nurse, pulis, or artista. Pero dala ng limitadong opportunities, kailangan pang pagdaanan ang matinding sacrifice. Hindi lang ito tungkol sa kahirapan,” Anton Vinzon, one of the lead stars of “Mga Batang Riles,” shared.
Anton shared his unforgettable experiences in doing the recently concluded television action series of GMA, revealing how his portrayal of his role Dagul allowed him to understand the conditions of those his character represents. “Mami-miss ko ‘yung tapang niya, ‘yung pagiging kuya niya sa mga mas bata sa kanya—kahit gutom siya, pipiliin pa rin niyang tumulong sa iba, Anton described his character.
Following the storyline and settings of the show, its actors, including Anton were exposed to the stories, from whom their characters were inspired, allowing them to navigate their portrayals with sensitivity while mirroring the people’s reality. “Ang pinakana-enjoy ko sa paggawa ng ‘Mga Batang Riles’ ay ang buong proseso ng paglalapit sa totoong buhay ng mga batang nasa laylayan,” the actor narrated.
Anton also recalled how the show shaped his perspective on building and maintaining relationships with the people he works with, especially during workshops that helped him improve and portray his characters better. “Isa sa mga natutuhan ko sa riles ay kung paano magmahal ng kapwa at makisama sa iba’t ibang tao. Marami po kaming pinagdaanan ng mga brothers ko; nag training po kami ng martial arts, boxing, at iba pa. Doon po mas naging solid ang lahat,” he shared.
Meanwhile, the actor expressed his gratitude to his supporters, who also inspired him while working on this project. “Alam kong hindi ko ito malalampasan ang mga pagsubok kung wala ang inyong suporta—kayong mga inspiration ko para ibigay ang lahat,” the actor expressed. “Hindi ninyo alam kung gaano kalaking bagay ang simpleng ‘Ang galing mo!’ at ‘Kaya mo yan!’ Kaya maraming salamat sa inyo! I love you, Anton Charmers,” Anton added, while looking forward to sharing more of his talent with his fans.
