After going viral on TikTok and subsequently charting on Spotify Global Viral 50 Chart where it peaked at No. 17, Singapore-based singer-songwriter Sezairi is currently on the rise with the recent success of his single “ It’s You .” A rousing ballad that showcases the journey of putting one’s fears to rest when it comes to loving someone, “It’s You” is part of Sezairi’s recently released EP, Undertones . “I had a lot of things in mind when writing this song but I guess the underlying theme is love,” the chart-topping artist opens up about the inspiration behind the track. “It’s like going on this crazy journey just searching for ‘the one’ and then having a sudden realization, and disbelief even, that you already know who you were looking for and that they were always there and will always be there for you no matter what. It’s also a sort of ode, a thank you to that special someone in your life.” The song is steadily climbing on Spotify Philippines’ Top 100 charts, ranking at No.

Metro Manila Film Festival gamble this time in presenting a new type of film but
with same genre that surely audiences of all ages will love more, it’s his

Sotto admit during the Blog Conference
last December 3, at Guilly’s Bar in Quezon City, that three of the story is
pitch in idea by his latest charmer, the wonder kid TV Host Ryza Mae Dizon who
also playing in different characters in the trilogy movie in one, as a mermaid,
a ghost haunted kid and as a Princess.
Shoot in almost 35 days mostly in
locations in Tanay, Rizal, My Big Bossing surpass the budget of Sotto’s previous flicks such as Enteng
Kabisote and even his last year’s My Little Bossing, this is due to style of
making three movies in one film that makes three times the budget. But Sotto is
not worried about it, it’s not the budget that counts but the movie itself that
he guarantee is full of values that kids of today can learn so much.

Joining Sotto in this year’s filmfest is
GMA’s Primetime Queen Marian Rivera for the episode Taktak directed by Marlon
Rivera, Nikki Gil for the Prinsesa under the direction of Bb.Joyce Bernal, and
her real life sweetheart Pauleen Luna for the Sirena episode by Director Tony
Y. Reyes.But Bossing Vic insist that
Luna is just doing a guest role yet a very challenging one as a old lady who
grant wishes, her prosthetic and make up takes 2 hour to prepare before the
take. Jose Manalo, Manilyn Reynes is

Bossing admits that he enjoy so much
doing the Sirena episode since majority of it they are in water, it’s like a
bonding for him and other cast like Aling Maliit (Ryza) that they don’t think
anymore of shooting rather its playtime.
Direk Marlon said that one thing
moviegoers should look for My Big Bossing is Ryza’s transformation, he is in

in acting is really honed especially in his episode in Taktak, a semi comedy
