Sheena Halili, nervous on her role as Agnes

Sheena Halili will play the role of Agnes, the mom of Binoy (David Remo). In the story, she fell in love with a man named Francis played by Luis Alandy. Unfortunately, they parted ways, leaving Binoy with his mom. She only finished second grade in school. Thus, having high hopes with regards to education for Binoy.

Like any other moms, she is willing to sacrifice everything just to give Binoy a bright future. 

On Sheena’s first taping for Binoy Henyo, she shared to us that there is no heaviness that was felt in the set. “Masaya and doon ko palang nakita yung kakulitan ni David, at magkasama kami buong araw. Masaya dahil napagaan din ng team na na-assign para sa show.”

This will be Sheena’s first time on being a mom for her role as Agnes that is why she cannot help but feel nervous to play the part. “Everytime nga na mageeksena ako, siyempre first time kong maging nanay. Lagi ko tinatanong ang Executive Producer namin, ‘Ganoon ba maging nanay? Tama ba yung emosyon ng pagiging nanay? Kasi siyempre ako, alam ko naman papaano malungkot, paano masaktan, pero hindi ko pa kasi naramdaman kung papaano yung sakit kapag yung anak mo yung malungkot.”
