00:00Earlier, your friends were like superstars.
00:04So, are you the picky friend,
00:07that you have to choose your friends
00:09so that before you become a friend,
00:11you have to get to know the person better?
00:14For me, it's just a coincidence
00:17because I don't stop working
00:19because I'm a breadwinner.
00:21You know, at the Melma,
00:23even to my parents, to my siblings,
00:25from when I was 12 until now I'm 40,
00:28my husband is teaching us.
00:30So, if that's the case,
00:32your best friends are usually
00:34either in school, which I have friends,
00:36best friends from USC and under,
00:38and even my elementary and high school friends.
00:41But because it's usually in the set,
00:43and because I always support my best friend,
00:46what happens is that they become my friends.
00:48I'm just lucky that my friends
00:50until now are still my friends
00:52for several decades.
00:54So, I'm not picky as a person
00:56because I don't have a luxury to choose.
00:58Because if I have a luxury to choose,
01:00maybe it's possible,
01:02but there's a blessing that
01:04all the superstars that became my friends,
01:06because until now, we're still friends.
01:08But what do you expect
01:10when your friends have issues?
01:12Because, of course, those superstars
01:14really have issues.
01:16Do they get nervous or react?
01:18As long as they're okay,
01:20there's no problem.
01:22As for me, I always pray.
01:24I also know how strong their hearts are.
01:28So, I think we don't need
01:30to talk about their private lives,
01:32especially because I'm their friend.
01:34So, I get to see that.
01:36But what's important to me is that
01:38they remain strong, they remain happy,
01:40and they remain very much happy
01:42with the lives that they have.
01:44Angel is always
01:46waiting for her fans.
01:48Is there a chance that she'll come back
01:50as a showman?
01:52That's why I always tell Neil and Angel
01:54that I'm still their spokesperson
01:56because they don't know much
01:58about me.
02:00But, as for me,
02:02with whatever life that they have chosen,
02:04both, Neil and Angel,
02:06I support.
02:08But what do you sense right now?
02:12I'm not in a position
02:14to talk about it.
02:16But how are they?
02:18I get to speak to Angel,
02:20I get to speak to Neil.
02:22But do they have a plan to produce a film?
02:24Because Neil always produces films.
02:26I like that
02:28because what Neil produces
02:30is really good.
02:32So, I want that. I pray for that.
02:34But again, as a friend,
02:36and I can only speak as a friend
02:38because I cannot speak about their lives.
02:40That's not my life.
02:42But as a friend, I'm so happy
02:44that they are together
02:46and I get to talk to them both.
02:48I'm so happy
02:50that I get to talk to them both.
02:52Last question,
02:54because in this industry,
02:56you get to work with a lot of people,
02:58but you only get to know a few people.
03:00So, what are the qualities
03:02for you to say that
03:04friendship is for real?
03:06Even if you're outside of acting
03:08and outside of the set,
03:10you get to know each other.
03:12You support each other.
03:14You support each other.
03:16Even though I've been working as an actress
03:18for almost three decades,
03:20I have remained very private about my life.
03:22That's why my children
03:24and my husband live normally
03:26and we get to go out properly
03:28is because Borat has remained
03:30very grounding to me,
03:32making sure that I remember
03:34that this job is just my job.
03:36But how do you give a demarcation
03:38that this person is just a chatting friend
03:40but a real friend?
03:42I always think that there's no such thing.
03:44I always see the best in people.
03:46So, I always treat them
03:48as very good friends of mine.
