How the hero dog ‘Kabang’ saved the life, family of her master

Who would have thought that an “askal” (stray dog) would become a celebrated hero? Not even the dog’s master, Rudy, thought the once homeless canine, which he found one day wandering on a street, was capable of doing the heroic acts that she did.

In June this year, Kabang saved Rudy’s daughter, Dinah, and her cousin from being run over by a motorcycle. Before the motorcycle could hit the girls, Kabang jumped in front of it and used her body to stop the vehicle.  As a result, the dog suffered a severe injury to her snout and upper jaw, eventually losing half her face.

REEL DEAL: Bakit Hindi Ka Crush Ng Crush Mo SPOTLIGHT

After Four Sisters and a Wedding and Tuhog, Star Cinema is again sharing another movie offering for its 20th Anniversary with BAKIT HINDI KA CRUSH  NG CRUSH MO? starring Kim Chiu and Xian Lim. Whew! that's a pretty long title compared to four sisters... and probably the longest title for a film this year. But what fascinates me is Star Cinema again bringing life to books with their movies.

Based on the book of the same title by Ramon Bautista, this movie brings to life the crazy things we do for love and our crushes. Its seems to be crush or be crushed. Also its also a new look for Kim who had big puffy curls for this movie. Of course Ramon Bautista will also have a special participation in the movie. Though I do love Kim having a new image here, would there be also something new with Xian too? 

BAKIT HINDI KA CRUSH NG CRUSH MO will beshowing July 31, 2013!

Starring Kim Chiu, Xian Lim  and Kean Cipriano, directed by Bb. Joyce Bernal
