In a heartfelt Instagram post, Ruru shared video clips of himself filming scenes for Lolong while seated in a wheelchair, a clear sign of his determination to push through despite physical limitations.
“After 4 days of bed rest, nakabalik na rin ako sa taping ng Lolong,” he wrote. “Sabi ng doktor, kailangan ko raw magpahinga ng 2 to 3 weeks para tuluyang gumaling ‘yung pulled hamstring ko. Pero kinausap ko siya—sabi ko kailangan ko nang bumalik sa trabaho.”
Ruru revealed that he and his doctor agreed to a compromise: he would limit his movements and closely coordinate with the production team to ensure that his scenes could be adjusted to fit his condition.
