Dingdong Dantes on Marian Rivera's Best Actress award in Cinemalaya: 'I am so proud of you, my wife
Dingdong Dantes couldn't be prouder of Marian Rivera for winning the Best Actress award in Cinemalaya 2024.
On Instagram, the Kapuso Primetime King shared a happy photo of Marian taken shortly after she delivered her acceptance speech for the award.
"My seatmate, Cinemalaya 2024's Best Actress," Dingdong wrote. "Fresh from her acceptance speech."
"I am so proud of you, my wife," he added.
On Facebook, the Kapuso Primetime King shared photos of Marian as she accepted her award and said "proud is an understatement."
Marian won the Best Actress award at the Cinemalaya 2024 for her performance as Teacher Emmy in "Balota." She shared the award with Gabby Padillo for "Kono Basho."
Written and directed by Kip Oebanda and co-produced by GMA Pictures and GMA Entertainment Group, "Balota" garnered high praise from viewers left, right, and center, thanks to Marian's stellar performance.
Marian showcased her versatile acting range as she gave viewers a kind of Marian they've never seen before: Unconventional and deglamorized.
"Balota" follows the story of a land-grabbing tycoon and a former male sexy actor locked in a tight race for the mayoral seat of a small town. When violence erupts, she runs into the forest with a ballot box containing the last copy of the election results.
