The newest sensation to grace our primetime screens is none other than the stunning Ara Davao. As she steps into the role of Katherine Caballero in the trending series "FPJ’s Batang Quiapo," the showbiz royalty captivates audiences not just with her mesmerizing goddess-like beauty but with her undeniable talent.

Her portrayal of Katherine has quickly established her as a rising star, as she embodies both grace and charm in every scene.

Behind the cameras, Ara's elegance is matched by her kind and generous spirit. She effortlessly connects with her co-artists and creates a warm and friendly vibe on set. How do we know? Well, just take a peek at this gallery of off-cam photos – or should we call it Katherine’s camera roll – and see for yourself!

Ara just signed her Kapamilya contract in 2021 during the Black Pen Day event. But her ease in front of the cameras and with her fellow cast members, even the veterans, is truly remarkable. It might be because she’s been immersed in the entertainment world her whole life—being the daughter of Ricky Davao and Jacky Lou Blanco, and the ‘apo’ of Pilita Corrales. Plus, she joined theater and dance clubs in school, which definitely helped!

She was made for showbiz, evident in how she easily fit into “FPJ’s Batang Quiapo” even though she only joined in the second season. And we see how she’s quickly become the darling of their unit. Indeed, being a great actor starts with being a good person, and Ara surely learned this from her parents.

In some photos, she’s seen rubbing elbows with acting titans Tessie Tomas and Charo Santos. Tessie plays her grandma, while Charo portrays her favorite house helper in the story. Ara was even caught intently listening to Tessie during downtime. We hope we can ask her what she and her on-screen ‘mamita’ often chat about!

The gallery also gives a glimpse of her off-cam dynamic with Elijah Canlas, McCoy de Leon, and Yce Navarro, like they're ‘tropa’ behind the scenes, even though her character on screen detests McCoy's David Dimaguiba/Hesus Montenegro so much.

Since we're calling this album "Katherine’s camera roll," you'll find stunning selfies and OOTDs of Ara in character–think flowy dresses that exude feminine spirit. Browsing through her snapshots is like seeing a goddess come to life!

We also get a peek into some stills from the mansion scenes, and recent ones where her character visited Quiapo to accompany Tindeng (Charo) on her visit to her family. Raise your hand if you noticed her chemistry with Coco Martin’s Tanggol Dimaguiba? Whether their paths would cross again, we’re definitely seated for that!

Catch Ara in “FPJ’s Batang Quiapo,” which airs weeknights, on Kapamilya Channel, Kapamilya Online Live, TV5, and A2Z.
