Martin Escudero gushes over working with Coco Martin

MARTIN Escudero said he has high respect for his co-actor Coco Martin and hopes that he could be as successful as the "King of Teleseryes".

The two actors are currently working opposite each other in the upcoming Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) entry "Feng Shui," top billed by the Queen of All Media Kris Aquino.

Escudero said that from day one, Martin has been helpful and considerate not only with his co-stars, but also with the whole production staff.

"Deserving pala siya na maging ganun kalaking artista kasi napakabait at napaka down to earth niya. Bow ako sa taong iyon. Lahat inaasikaso niya. Kahit yung grupo ng art department, inaasikaso niya, pinapansin niya and kinakamusta niya. Makikita mo talaga yung kabutihan niya," he said during the opening of Outback Steakhouse in Bluebay Walk, Pasay City.

Escudero added that Martin does not hesitate to help his co-stars on the set. He said he learned a lot from the short time they work together.

"Sa mga eksena, tinutulungan niya ako and hindi lahat ng artista ay ganun dahil siyempre big star na siya diba. Bakit pa siya magpapakapagod na (turuan ako). Alam natin na magaling siya umarte and may karapatan talaga siya na magturo," Escudero added.

Escudero said he wants to be successful like Martin and even want to reach what the actor has achieved so far. Both Escudero and Martin started their showbiz careers via independent films.

"Hindi man sumikat na kasing sikat niya, at least magkaroon ng trabaho na tuloy tuloy. Pag artista ka naman na hoping ka talaga na maging successful kasi may work. Normal 'yun. Ang habol ko talaga ay makatrabaho ang mga magagaling. 'Yun na lang ang wish ko," he said.

Even though Escudero has big goals in his showbiz career, he knows that this entertainment business is not forever. That is why he is trying to look for other opportunities outside showbiz.
