GMA Afternoon Prime's newest series, Oh My Mama, starts airing this September 19

On September 19, a new drama series will be airing on the Kapuso Network. Topbilled by Inah de Belen, Oh My Mama is a remake of a 1981 Maricel Soriano movie with the same title. 

This is Inah's launching project in GMA since she transferred to the network. In Oh My Mama, Inah will be playing the role of Maricel, a 17-year-old teenager who longs for the affection of her dad. On her quest for searching her real father, Maricel crosses paths with a syndicated group that kidnaps children to be used as beggars. In this series, Inah will be playing a mother role which she considers as her most challenging role to date. Will she accomplish this despite of her young age? That is what we need to find out.

With this new milestone in her career, nobody is more proud and excited than her own parents. During the presscon, Inah was moved to tears as she was surprised with a special message from her mom, Janice de Belen.
