Dennis Trillo has a thank you 'speech' after winning the Best Actor award at the MMFF

Kapuso celebrity Dennis Trillo won the Best Actor award at the recently concluded MMFF Gabi ng Parangal.

Because he was sick and had to miss the awarding ceremony on Thursday, his manager Popoy Caratitivo accepted the award in his behalf.

Of course, what is a thank you speech without a shout out to ones beloved, in this case, Kapuso celebrity Jennylyn Mercado.

“Ang lahat ng ito ay hindi ko magagawa kung hindi sa tulong ng lahat ng mga mahal ko sa buhay. Salamat sa inyong pag aalaga at pagmamahal sakin, lalu na kay @mercadoJenny,” read a portion of his message.

In a separate post, Dennis shared a photo of himself from 14 years ago, when he received his very first acting award.

Read his complete ‘speech’ below:

Labing apat na taon mula noong ako’y unang nakatanggap ng ganitong parangal, para sa pelikulang Aishite Imasu 1941 directed by Joel Lamangan, na siya ring pinaka una kong pelikulang nagawa sa buong buhay ko.

Salamat po Mother Lily at Miss Roselle Monteverde sa pagtitiwala noon pa man, hindi hindi ko po yun makakalimutan.

Taos puso din ang aking pasasalamat kay Miss Kim Chiu ,JC deVera, Marlo Mortel at Miles Ocampo lahat ay magagaling at seryoso sa trabaho, mapalad at proud akong nakagawa ng proyekto kasama kayo.

Malaking bagay din ang tulong at pag gabay ng aming director na si direk Eric Quizon @eric_quizon . Salamat sa pagbigay ng kumpiyansa sa akin upang magampanan ko ng maayos ang Role ni Ian. 

Ang lahat ng ito ay hindi ko magagawa kung hindi sa tulong Ng lahat ng mga mahal ko sa buhay. Salamat sa inyong pag aalaga at pagmamahal sakin lalu na kay @mercadojenny 

Sana po ay mapanood niyo ang #onegreatlove Merry Christmas and Happy New Year po sa inyong lahat.

Well-deserved! Congratulations, Dennis! — LA, GMA News
