Vice Ganda shares heartfelt devotion to his mother

The cast of 'Call Me Mother'

At this flourishing stage in his life, Vice is wholly devoted to ensuring her happiness, pouring his energy and love into every gesture, big or small, to brighten her days and celebrate her vibrant spirit.

During the media conference for his upcoming movie "Call Me Mother," also starring Nadine Lustre, Vice looked back at the dark days when his mom got depressed about the demise of his father.

"Napakaraming memorable na karanasan ko sa nanay ko. Mabibigat, magagaan, nakakatuwa, at masaya. Yung mabigat is lagi kong naaalala nung napatay yung tatay ko. So humihingi kami noon ng hustisya at uma-attend kami ng hearing. (I have so many memorable experiences with my mother. Heavy, light, funny, and happy. The heavy one is when I always remember when my father was killed. So we used to ask for justice, and we would attend the hearing.)"

"Traumatized kami noon kami nga nakikita namin yung tao na pumatay sa tatay ko. Hindi pa namin alam kung ano ang depression noon pero alam ko depressed ang nanay ko nun. Grabe yung itsura ng nanay ko. Mukha na siyang adik sa payat. Every day she makes sure na pupunta sa church na nakabelo. (We were traumatized when we saw the man who killed my father. We didn't know what depression was back then, but I know my mother was depressed. My mother looked terrible. She looked like a skinny addict. Every day she makes sure to go to church wearing a veil)," Vice also said.
