Regine admitted during the press conference of the animated film Urduja at the Imperial Palace Suites last June 7 that she’s proud to be a part of such a wonderful project.
“First of all, hindi ito kasama sa pangarap ko,” she confessed. “Kumbaga, bonus ito na binigay sa akin na pagkakataon. Di ba, kapag nanonood ka ng mga cartoons, sina Demi Moore, Brad Pitt yung nagbo-boses? Parang nakakatuwa, and Urduja came along.
“So when I was asked to do this film, hindi talaga ako nag-hesitate at nakita ko talaga nung nag-uumpisa na, nagda-dubbing na kami meron kaming konti-konti na nakikitang animation.”
“I feel very proud and one thing also, alam ninyo yung mga napapanood nating animated movie from Walt Disney, ganyan, karamihan doon mga Pilipino ang gumagawa. Hindi lang po sila nare-rercognize. But this time, they’re being recognized and I think that’s something to be proud of.”
“Maganda talaga yung movie and nagpapakumbaba naman kami na hindi nga namin kayang pantayan yung… First of all, masyado na silang advance. Masyado rin silang maraming ginawa at masyado ring marami silang money. Pero Urduja is something to be proud of.”
“If you watch the movie it’s a very, very beautiful movie. Pilipinong-Pilipino. May love story, pero meron ding conflict na makiikita. Makikita rin natin doon yung ating kultura,” she told the press.
Regine also sings the theme song of Urduja entitled Babae Ako with music by Ogie Alcasid and lyrics by Joey De Leon.
Urduja is produced by APT Entertainment Seventoon and Imaginary Friends and will be released by GMA Films.
Urduja will open in more than 100 theaters nationwide on June 18.
