Interesting facts

Sa Aking Mga Kamay is a 1996 Philippine psychological thriller drama film directed by Rory B. Quintos and written by Ricky Lee, Mel Mendoza-del Rosario, and Benjou Elgincolin from a story concept developed by Olivia M. Lamasan. The film stars Christopher de Leon, Aga Muhlach and Chin Chin Gutierrez, with a supporting cast including Kier Legaspi, Amy Austria, Robert Arevalo, and Karl Angelo Legaspi.

Production

The film was given acknowledgment by the National Bureau of Investigation and Makati Medical Center.

Aga Muhlach, playing the role of Gene Rivera, stated that his role was a challenge for him because it was different playing a serial killer rather than his usual role as a leading man in romance films. While the film was shooting, he admitted that he was not prepared to face Christopher de Leon, who played the role of Joven dela Rosa, an agent from the NBI who was assigned to find Gene and kill him.

Christopher de Leon also admitted that even though he said that it was a very interesting role, the references to the NBI made him feel anxious and worried, but the experience in the criminal investigation field during the shoot allowed him to shape his character better.
