How far would you go for the one you love?
That’s the question that Dahil sa Pag-ibig, a new afternoon series topbilled by Benjamin Alves, Winwyn Marquez, Pancho Magno, and Sanya Lopez, would like answer.
The gripping story about the sacrifices a wife would be willing to endure for the sake of her husband in Dahil sa Pag-ibig started to unfold yesterday, May 20 on GMA.
It follows the story of Eldon (Benjamin), who works as an OFW in Saudi Arabia, commits a grave crime that eventually lands him in jail. His wife Mariel (Sanya), who is left in the Philippines, is desperate to earn the “Blood Money” that will bail out her husband. Portia (Winwyn), the wife of Eldon’s employer, is bent on putting him behind bars. Gary (Pancho), Mariel’s rich former lover, offers an indecent proposal that shakes her fidelity to Eldon.
Driven by the fears and sacrifices of every wife who has an OFW for a husband, Dahil sa Pag-ibig tells the thought-provoking tale of the temptations and difficulties that a married couple confront when separated by distance.
Witness in Dahil Sa Pag-ibig how a shocking revelation turned the once perfect lives of the characters of this soap into a nightmare.
