Aga Muhlach Personally Appeals to Tito Vic and Joey de Leon for Atasha Muhlach’s Return to Eat Bulaga Despite Scheduling Conflicts
The showbiz world is abuzz with news that Aga Muhlach, renowned actor and father of Atasha Muhlach, has personally reached out to veteran hosts Tito Vic Sotto and Joey de Leon, popularly known as Tito Vic and Joey, to plead for his daughter’s return to the iconic noontime show Eat Bulaga! Despite Atasha’s busy schedule filled with numerous projects and conflicts, Aga is reportedly eager for her to get another chance to appear on the longest-running noontime program in the Philippines.
Atasha Muhlach had quickly become a beloved face on Eat Bulaga! when she was introduced as one of the fresh talents under the new management of EIG Production, following the show’s move from its former network. Her natural charm, fluency in Tagalog, and infectious personality won over the hearts of many viewers, contributing significantly to the show’s continued dominance in ratings despite stiff competition from rival programs such as Vice Ganda’s It’s Showtime.
However, after several months of active participation, Atasha’s sudden disappearance from the show left fans puzzled and longing for her comeback. Reports suggest that her contract with Eat Bulaga! expired on March 15, and although talks for an extension were held, they ultimately fell through due to her tight commitments elsewhere in the entertainment industry.
Currently, Atasha is fully immersed in her career under Viva Entertainment, where she is juggling various projects. Among these is her lead role in a highly anticipated television series adapted from a popular film, demanding intense focus and a rigorous shooting schedule. Additionally, Atasha is managing a slew of endorsements, ranging from fashion brands and health products to motorcycles and automotive campaigns, which further complicates her availability.
According to a recent interview on the YouTube channel of showbiz columnist Cristy Fermin, with hosts Romel Chica and Wendel Alvarez, Aga Muhlach has been actively negotiating with Tito Vic and Joey, expressing a heartfelt plea for Atasha to be given another shot at Eat Bulaga!, even if just temporarily. Sources close to Cristy claim that Aga’s approach was not just a formal request but an emotional appeal from a devoted father seeking the best opportunities for his daughter.
Director Dirk Cabrido, who is helming Atasha’s upcoming series, also shared that while scheduling remains tight, there might still be a chance to work around her projects to facilitate a possible return to Eat Bulaga! in the coming months. The final decision, however, depends largely on how her taping and professional commitments unfold.
Meanwhile, the Eat Bulaga! production team is actively seeking to fill the gap left by Atasha’s absence. Julia Barretto and Michelle Dee have been appearing as guest co-hosts, undergoing testing to see if they resonate with the audience and could potentially become permanent fixtures on the show. The program has undergone several changes, and introducing new faces is part of their strategy to maintain its appeal.
Despite these efforts, many fans continue to hold onto hope for Atasha’s return. Her sudden exit sparked much speculation, but more than that, it left a void in the hearts of viewers who had grown fond of her energetic presence, warmth, and natural charisma on screen. Even members of the production team reportedly remain open to welcoming her back when the timing is right.
Reports indicate that the door to Eat Bulaga! remains wide open for Atasha, awaiting the right moment for her comeback. In the fast-paced world of television, where schedules and contracts constantly change, this continued openness reflects the respect and admiration the show’s producers have for Atasha’s talent and appeal. Her proficiency in Tagalog and ability to connect with diverse audiences make her a valuable asset.
As of now, neither Atasha nor her camp has made any official announcements regarding her possible return, keeping fans and media in suspense. The public’s curiosity grows as people wonder whether she will rejoin the Eat Bulaga! family or decide to focus entirely on her acting career, modeling engagements, and endorsement deals.
What remains clear is that Aga Muhlach’s unwavering support and personal intervention signal a strong desire for Atasha to continue shining on Philippine television, particularly on the stage that helped elevate her profile. The Filipino audience remains hopeful that, in the coming weeks or months, they will once again see Atasha light up the Eat Bulaga! stage with her signature smile, infectious energy, and inspiring presence.
Atasha Muhlach has already made a significant mark on the show’s new generation, and many fans believe her story with Eat Bulaga! is far from over. For now, viewers stay tuned and eagerly await any developments about her potential return to the iconic noontime program.
