00:00Ergie Sangria-Danaya is back on GMA Prime
00:07through Batang Riles.
00:10Her Christmas celebration is also back in the Philippines
00:13with her kids who grew up in Australia.
00:16Let's talk to Lars Santiago.
00:21You don't understand what my ancestors went through.
00:25Every time Diana Zubiri sees the flag of Batang Riles on TV,
00:33she gets more excited to see it with her own eyes.
00:38I'm so excited because this is our first show this year.
00:45We're the opening of this year.
00:51I'm so happy because this is my return after 5 years.
00:55This is also a comeback project of Diana
00:58after living in Australia for 5 years.
01:02She was last seen in action and fight scenes
01:05when she was born as Lila Sari in Encantadia, 2016.
01:11Diana is proud of the 5 young actors she has in her project.
01:17Not only is she kind,
01:19Kokoy De Santos, Rahil Birya, Bruce Roland, Antonio Binson, and Miguel Tan Felix
01:27are also active in the series.
01:31The kid is talented, disciplined, and trained.
01:35He's been an artist since he was a kid.
01:38He's trained and professional.
01:40We have a great tandem as parents.
01:43He really reaches out to me.
01:45He puts in effort when it comes to acting.
01:50Because Miguel and his 4 co-actors fight in intense action scenes,
01:57Diana has a good observation of them as young action stars.
02:03I see them rehearse and train.
02:06I'm proud because I see how hardworking they are
02:10and how they prepare the scenes.
02:13I'm sure the viewers will be proud of them.
02:18This Christmas, Diana will only be at home with her family
02:23because this is the only time she will be able to celebrate Christmas in the Philippines.
02:29She teaches her children, who grew up in Australia,
02:34the Filipino Christmas traditions.
02:37I taught them how to do the Mano.
02:40I will teach them the Ninong.
02:44That's the tradition here in the Philippines.
02:46Mano po Ninong, Mano po Ninang.
02:49We are happy that the kids are having fun,
02:52even if it's just a game.
02:54My children are just like that.
02:56No matter what you give them, they will be happy.
