One of the country’s young dramatic actresses, Maja Salvador, unsheathes anew her acting mettle on “Wildflower.”
The title of the TV series now airing on ABS-CBN speaks a lot about what viewers should expect from Maja. As the beautiful and wild Ivy, the actress exacts revenge on people whom she believed responsible for the death of her parents. She will have daring scenes with her leading men.
“This may be one of my wildest dream na gumawa ng ganitong teleserye. Bagong timpla and bagong teleserye ang maibibigay ko kaya sobrang na-excite ako and sobrang challenge siya para sa akin na maging wild sa isang role,” explained Maja.
According to Ruel Bayani, the business unit head responsible for “Wildflower,” the show has lots in common with “Pasión de Amor” in terms of sexiness and intensity. Ruel maintained though that former is better than the latter.”
“Naniniwala kami na ang revenge dapat extreme kasi kung malamya lang siya at hindi intense bakit pa siya naging revenge? Kaya tama lang siya na wild ang revenge dahil ito ay sagad sa emosyon. Ganun din ang palabas na ito, sagad sa lahat ng bagay,” Ruel stressed.
