MANILA — Atasha Muhlach, who recently graduated from a university in the United Kingdom earlier this year, has swiftly transitioned into the world of show business just two months after completing her studies.

The daughter of Aga and Charlene Muhlach was introduced as the newest host of E.A.T., a program aired daily on TV5.

Expressing her delight at the warm reception, Atasha remarked, “It’s a fun experience, and I’m really happy that people are embracing me now. I hope they continue to embrace me, and I just really want to learn more. I’m willing to learn and make mistakes. And I’m just happy that people are very forgiving about it.”

Despite being a newcomer in the entertainment industry, Atasha shared some advice from her parents. “Don’t be scared and always give it your best,” she conveyed.

Encouragement for Atasha to join beauty competitions has been pouring in from various quarters. It’s worth noting that her mother, Charlene, was crowned Binibining Pilipinas-Universe and was a finalist in the Miss Universe pageant in 1994.

Atasha, however, remains open-minded about the possibility, stating, “I’m not gonna close my doors. I’m learning this process of being an artist first. I want to develop those skills, but we’ll see where it goes. I really look up to my mother. She’s someone that I really praise. I don’t know yet; we’ll see. I just need to master my craft now, hosting, and eventually acting, singing.”
