REVEALED: Paulo Avelino Turned Down Movie Deal After Working with Kim Chiu?
Paulo Avelino's sudden rejection of a new movie project after working with Kapamilya star Kim Chiu in a previous project is currently the talk of the showbiz world. What was the reason behind Paulo's decision, and what really happened between the two?
The Movie Proposal
According to the report, Paulo was offered a high-profile film that seemed to still be related to the romantic drama genre—a field the actor is skilled in. But, to the surprise of the production team, Paulo immediately turned it down, even though the project had a big budget and was promising. The question is: What made him make such a decision?
Kim Chiu's Their Project
Recently, Paulo and Kim Chiu teamed up in a movie that caused mixed reactions from the public. Although it was a box office success, there were speculations that there was tension between the two during the production of the project. According to a source, their working styles did not match, causing some scenes to be awkward.
“Paulo is a professional, but it’s clear that there are some things he’s not comfortable with,” an insider said.
Isn’t it because of Kim Chiu?
Although speculations are circulating that Paulo’s refusal was related to Kim, the actor’s camp immediately responded. According to his manager, “The decision to decline the project is purely professional. Paulo has a tight schedule and other commitments that he prioritized.”
In addition, the source also said that Paulo’s decision was not personal, and that he had no problem with Kim. In fact, he had praised the actress’s skills several times in interviews during their promo period.

Netizens’ Opinion
Netizens also did not miss the opportunity to give their respective reactions. Some say it's natural because Paulo may not have liked the script, while others have confirmed the rumor that there is tension between the two.
“Paulo's acting vibe is different. Maybe they're not really a good fit,” said a netizen.
“Kim is still kind. Let's not use her as a reason,” defended a fan of Kim.
The Future
While it remains a mystery what the real reason for Paulo's rejection is, it's clear that they both have their own paths to take. Despite this, their fans are hoping that their pairing will be rekindled at a more opportune time and project.
If the reason is just work, Paulo definitely has bigger plans for his career. But if there's a deeper reason behind all this, who can say?
