Arjo Atayde: The Actor in its real sense

Prime Actor Arjo Atayde with his mom and actress Ms. Sylvia Sanchez 

Who would not know him for his remarkable role in "Ang Probinsyano," as Police C/Insp. Joaquin S. Tuazon, one of Coco Martin aka Ricardo Dalisay's antagonists during his whole appearance in the said soap, that has been running for more than two years now. I am pretty sure that you do have the clue aa to whom I am referring... He's no other than Arjo Atayde who is Juan Carlos Ocampo Atayde in real life. He's now twenty-seven years old and is enjoying the peak of his career. 

Being a son of an equally prime actress, Miss Sylvia Sanchez, is a plus factor for him I guess, since Arjo had mentioned before during one of the interviews with him that, his mom gives him some pointers in acting and that she never ceases to remind him and sister Ria Atayde to always stay grounded,  be respectful of others, and to be greatful for everything that they have been receiving. 

The good-looking and bedimpled Arjo Atayde 

Arjo has been in the showbiz for quite sometime and his acting ability is uncompromised and recognizable. In fact, he has earned numerous awards, such as bagging (to name a few) the PMPC Star Awards for Television as Best Single Performance by an Actor in "Maalaala Mo Kaya: 'Bangka' " in 2012; PMPC Star Awards for Television as Best Drama Supporting Actor via "Dugong Buhay" in 2013 and his latest achievement was another Best Drama Supporting Actor for his performance in "Ang Probinsyano," during PMPC Star Awards for Television in 2016. 

I remember Arjo's strong character in "Ang Probinsyano," he was so believable, being an envious, insecure co-police officer of Cardo who uses his position, power and money just to bring Cardo down and his family. He is such an effective actor. By just merely looking through his eyes, this alone could speak to the audience. He effectively transmits and conveys to us what he wanted us to feel and be really involved in whatever scene he's going through. And I believe that he should be given more acting opportunities and projects catering to  that villain-like character. 

This time, my fave young actor is back with a different role, or should I say, in a very wholesome and family-oriented character. This particular tv series, I guess, can be considered his very memorable one, for he shares the limelight with no other than her mom, Miss Sylvia Sanchez where they also play mother and son in the story. "Hanggang Saan," has a drama, action, love and crime theme where Arjo plays "Paco," the son of Sonya (Sylvia). There are a lot of conflicts and complications in the story. 

Like in these heart-breaking scenes posted above, taken this afternoon, Paco (Arjo), was with his mom Sonya (Sylvia) and his only sibling Domeng (Yves Flores). This particular scene itself consumes a lot of energy, effort and emotions from the cast which I admit, had a great impact on us, viewers. Had they not been good in their performances, I swear, the program would not be receiving awesome reviews and ratings.

I can imagine how dreadful Arjo's role is as Paco. Presently, he is so torn between the love of his life, Anna (Sue Ramirez), and his very own family, particularly his mom, Sonya who allegedly killed Anna's father, Edward Lamoste played by Eric Quizon. The whole revelation thing came in so quickly, Sonya has forced herself to admit to her family that she was the real killer/suspect of the "Lamoste Murder Case," which ironically, is being handled by a law firm which Paco is also involved working as an apprentice or OJT (On the Job Training). 

With Arjo's expertise in this kind of field, he acts so naturally. He is such a blessing to the local showbiz. There are only a few actors which I know that you know, is capable and deserving of the title as "The Actor." He can be the future "John Lloyd Cruz,", and can also be another "Christopher de Leon" in the making. I hope for more good projects for you, Arjo, for you deserve to be "up" there and be even more recognized.
