Following the success of The Flor Contemplacion Story, the film was announced in July 1995 with Nora Aunor, Donna Cruz and Ian de Leon as part of the cast. Bing Loyzaga was initially cast in the film, but backed out due to scheduling conflicts and was replaced by Rita Avila.[7][8]

Reception

[edit]

Muling Umawit ang Puso received dominantly positive reviews. Noel Vera praised the story's strong beginning and climax, but dismissed its ending as a "letdown" from combining the subplots into one. He also praised the performances of the stars.[9] Isah Red of the Manila Standard considers the film an honest one. He praised Lamangan for inserting "truth and honesty" to the story, as if he's "capturing reality" in the film. He praised the performances of the stars, including Aunor, for giving "cinematic truth to her character".[10]
