It was in the historic Taj Majal in India where Robin and Mariel were married. The couple will have a Catholic wedding later.
It turned out Robin, Mariel, and Robin’s daughter Queenie also shot a movie while in India.
“Ang lahat po ng pangyayaring ito ay isang, siguro, kasagutan sa panalangin ko na sana isang araw meron tayong maiambag sa kabataan na isang alaala sa kanila na pwede nilang balik-balikan, pwede nilang basahin. Isang bagay na hindi sinesermonan sila. Isang magandang storya,” said Robin at the launch of StarStudio magazine’s special issue “StarStudio Plus: IDOL.”
Robin said he chose India for his movie shoot because he loves the peaceful and unadulterated atmosphere of the country.
He said the movie, a joint veture between the Philippines and India, is slated to be shown this coming Valentine.
According to the Bulletin report, Robin took Mariel on a trip around India, to historic places and old kingdoms, telling her stories like how the Philippines country used to have rajahs and sultans before the Spaniards invaded the Philippines.
“Dahan-dahan napapaliwanag natin kay Mariel. Bata pa kasi si Mariel, eh. Ang liit pa ng mundo niya na nakita. Kokonti lang. Parang mundo lang yata ng ABS yung nakita niya. Minsan para niya kong teacher, minsan natutulog na nga yun eh. Medyo sa dami yata ng sinasabi ko, nakikita ko tulog na. Pero minsan pinipilit niya, sinasampal niya yung sarili niya para makinig siya… good student naman yun,” he said, laughing.
Robin also recalled how Mariel fulfilled her duties as housewife while they were in India.
According to Robin, Mariel would try her best to do things for him, like make his coffee and breakfast and fix his bath water.
Robin revealed that he does not want Mariel to give up her showbiz career in favor of becoming a full time housewife. He’d rather for Mariel to be, in his word, “progressive,” and just do what she wants.
