Sanya Lopez didn’t mince words when she was asked to describe her intimate scene with Alden Richards for the ongoing Netflix period drama “Pulang Araw.”
“Gaano ka-hot ‘yung [kissing scene]?” was the question asked to her by host Tito Boy Abunda on his web show “Fast Talk with Boy Abunda.” Sanya’s answer? “Sobrang hot.”
Sanya went on to reveal that they had to shoot the scene twice—one where they were wearing clothes and one without.
“‘Yung una kasi non, ‘yung original, nakadamit kami, Tito Boy,” she shared. “Tapos parang sinabi nila since nga po sa Netflix ito ilalabas naman, kumuha sila nung talagang ‘yung topless. Topless kami pero may cover naman po kami because nag-go si Alden, go din naman po ako that time.”
She also recounted how shy she had been towards Alden while shooting that scene and tried to calm her nerves by asking him if he had ever filmed similar intimate scenes.
“Medyo nakakakaba talaga ‘yung—ang lamig talaga, hanggang ngayon nilalamig ‘yung kamay ko, Tito Boy! Ganun siya ka-intense,” she added.
However, she praised Alden for his professionalism and for making sure that she was comfortable the whole time.
“In fairness naman kay Alden, iningatan naman niya ako,” she said. “Tinatanong niya rin naman kasi ako kung okay [lang ba ako]. Sabi ko sa kanya, ‘Okay lang, okay ka lang?'”
“He’s professional din at the same time. So pareho naman kami na kung ano ‘yung kinakailangan sa work, gagawin namin, Tito Boy,” she continued.
She also confirmed that Alden was a good kisser.
