Gabby Concepcion OK with remake of 'Dear Heart'

Everyone is still talking about the successful run of the Megastar Sharon Cuneta's Mega-Thirty concert held at the Araneta Coliseum last Friday. Fans and friends of the singer-actress were treated to a nostalgic musical revue as Sharon and her special guests sang her remarkable hits like Mr DJ, Sana'y Wala ng Wakas, Pangarap na Bituin and a whole lot more.

Her special number with some of her leading men was one of the highlights of the show. Richard Gomez, Aga Muhlach and Robin Padilla were there to serenade the crowd. But Mega's first on-screen partner Gabby Concepcion was not there.

"Pupunta nga sana ako sa concert niya at makikita ko ang lahat ng mga naging leading man niya. Medyo naiinggit nga ako e. Medyo naramdaman ko nga na sumikip ang dibdib ko e dahil wala ako doon. Pero sabi ko, bakit ako wala doon? Pero siyempre baka isipin ng tao iniisnab ko yung concert niya. Hindi. Ayoko lang ng intriga. Katulad nga ng sabi ni Sharon, mas mabuti na lang para walang intriga baka yun lang ang mangyari. So, nirerespeto ko yun." explained Gabby.

Apart from having a two-day concert of his own at the MusicMuseum (August 15-16), he's also excited about his daughter's upcoming movie with Star Cinema. Gabby shared that he didn't see KC during his live guesting on The Buzz but met up with his daughter during her For the First Time taping.

"Hindi kami nagkita (sa The Buzz). (Pero) nagkita kami sa Tagaytay. May shooting siya doon, dinalaw ko siya. Siyempre, masyado siyang busy masyado akong busy. E kung kelan ako libre busy siya. Kung libre naman siya, busy ako. Tinawagan ko siya, sabi ko asan ka ngayon, sabi niya papunta raw siyang Tagaytay. Sabi ko, 'O sige, puntahan na kita diyan para makita kita'." he narrated.

He also candidly shared one of his phone conversations with Annabelle Rama, who happens to be Richard Gutierrez's mom, KC's on-screen love team.

"Tinawagan ko nga si Annabelle kaninang umaga e. E hindi ko alam ang itatawag ko sa kanya. Matagal ko na rin naman siyang tinatawag na tita e. Tita pa rin. Kasi hindi naman sa nang-iintriga ako, pero halimbawa napag-uusapan naman. Alangan naman'g tawagin ko siyang balae, e kapag nagkahiwalay balik na naman sa tita. Kaya tita na lang." said Gabby.

What can he say about the rumor that KC and Richard have been going steady for four months now?

Bata pa lang yan e, ang babait naman yang mga yan. Kung meron man'g nangyayari sa kanila more than the movie, e sa kanila na yun." he replied.

ABS-CBN.com also asked him to comment on the possible remake of Dear Heart, a movie he made with his ex-wife. Sharon has already expressed that she doesn’t want it redone unless KC is the one to star in it. Well, Gabby was more open to it shared that he doesn’t mind a remake at all.

"Ako kahit na sino, basta maganda ang pagkakagawa. E kasi marami nang mga ganyan e, kung yung mga kanta rin na-re-remake, yung mga pelikula na-re-remake din. E buhay pa naman si Danny Zialcita, yung director namin sa Dear Heart, baka puwedeng siya pa ang mag-direct. Baka meron pa siyang ibang view."
