Arci Muñoz on showbiz success: Pana-panahon ‘yan

MANILA, Philippines —  Arci Muñoz said the "right timing" is crucial to success in show business.

The actress has been in the industry for a while, and now she was finally given a big break through the sexy TV show "Pasion de Amor," which will end this February.

"Para sa akin po kasi pana-panahon ‘yan talaga, e," she said during a recent interview. "Darating 'yong tamang oras na ibibigay sa 'yo. Si God talaga ang nag-decide. Ako kasi ang dami kong gusting gawin, pero sabi ni Lord, 'Para dyan ka."

"So tamang panahon lang talaga. Ngayon siguro talaga the stars are aligning for me," she added.

Arci has no regrets that she had to do a sexy role to give her career a little push. She was hesitant to do sexy roles since she came from a conservative family.

"Sabi ko nga po dati, I really have my limitation," she ssaid about doing a sexy role. "Depende po kasi talaga, e.  So I trust my directors, and sabi nga nila hindi naman talaga siya bastusin, e. Kung alam ko sa sarili ko na hindi ko kaya, then hindi ko siya talaga gagawin."

Aside from "Pasion de Amor," Arci is also busy doing final works for the film "Always be My Maybe," her first starring film with Gerald Anderson. It will hit cinemas on February 24.
