DINGDONG Dantes is saddened by write-ups labelling him as “flop king” because his new TV series, “Atlantika” has yet to score significant ratings since it started airing a few weeks ago. Add to this the fact that his movie with Iza Calzado titled “Eternity” did not do very well at the box office.
“It may not have done well as expected but it was not a flop either,” Dingdong told a number of writers who chanced upon him at the birthday party of fellow Kapuso star Alfred Vargas held Friday night at the Aruba Bar located in Tomas Morato. Quezon City.
While the write-ups sadden Dingdong, if there’s any consolation for him, we must note that he has yet to appear in “Atlantika.” The story going on air right now is still focused on the young Aquano. The production people behind “Atlantika” as well as director Mark Reyes are hopeful that the ratings would improve once Dingdong appears in the series as Aquano.
No matter the initial setbacks in the ratings, Dingdong and the rest of the cast of “Atlantika” are doing their best to make the show even better. The support that GMA-7 is giving “Atlantika” is tremendous and is enough to inspire the people involved in the show. The fact that Dingdong is one of the directors inspires him all the more to do his job well.
The boyfriend of Karylle even told the press that he expected to receive negative reactions. He anticipated that criticisms would be coming but he didn’t reckon it would be this harsh. But he’s giving all he can and doing his best to make “Atlantika” even better. Come Wednesday, Dingdong will finally make his appearance in “Atlantika” along with the principal characters in the series. link
