Direk Romm goes on a back-to-back show on television




After the lifting of the Community Quarantine, multi-awarded director/actor, Romm Burlat will be back with a vengeance. He is not only scheduled to continue shooting the scenes of his two movies, "And I Loved Her" and "Bakit Nasa Huli Ang Simula" and starting with other films like "Ban-Uk", "Venus In My Mind" and "Nang Pinulot Ang Pira-Pirasong Pangarap", he is also scheduled to go back to TV hosting with two shows: a talk show billed "Of Critics & Critiques" and a variety show named "It's Entertainment", both on The Manila Times TV.

" Of Critics & Critiques" is a show which focuses on review of Hollywood and local films, Every episode, Burlat will have a Filipino Celebrity guesting live in the studio and a Foreign Celebrity guest on a phone patch. It is the first time on local TV to have a show which deals on critics who critiques the movies currently showing. On the other hand, "It's Entertainment" is  a variety show for the talented Filipino teens age 13-19. Direk Romm assured us that this is not identical to a successful show in previous decade billed "That's Entertainment". Burlat quipped, "It may be similar in its title and the goal of recognizing talented youth but in concept and format, it's way different from the show of the great Star Maker, Kuya Germs."

It can be recalled that last year, Direk Romm won Best TV Talk Show Host in the 1st Southeast Asia International Excellence Awards  for his travel show on TV, " Romm Around The World".

Aptly named " Jack of All Trades", Burlat is not only a director, an actor, a TV Host but also a writer, talent manager and a resource speaker. He just had a back-to-back win in international film awards as Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor in Los Angeles, California and Italy respectively. Last year, he won Best Director in a film festival in India.
