Exclusive - Baron Geisler On Ping Medina’s Accusations: 'Di Ako Naapektuhan Ng Paninira'

Baron Geisler faces controversy anew after Ping Medina claimed that the notorious actor allegedly peed on him.

Geisler defended himself and shared the same story from his point of view.

Amidst accusations of disrespect towards Medina and their director Arlyn Dela Cruz, Geisler came clean and said he asked for the director's permission three times before the incident but the director simply dismissed him.

"You can check the BTS (behind-the-scenes) for proof kung bastos ako towards anyone. Wala po. May proof. But you were trying to pull off a Brillante Mendoza, bulong ka sa artista na samapalin mo para magulat or maganda reaction. I was slapped many times. So I thought... ahhh... so it's ok pala to surprise my co-actors sa set. So low po of you to discredit my name,” Geisler wrote on his post.

The director hastily responded to the actor's post on a separate post expressing her sentiments.

"To Baron Geisler,

I did not judge you because I am the type of person who do not cast judgment on people...on anyone for that matter, especially if I do not personally know the person.

I did not judge you based on what was written about you or reported about you. I was warned about you by many of your fellow actors. "Do not ever work with Baron".

You showed pride when you declared that you do not need this movie, nor the talent fee. But your actions betrayed the truth: you needed this, you wanted this....so much.

When you found the courage to be truthful, that you needed the money because of the hospital needs of your sick mother, I decided, why not pursue the decision of casting you, (any role you even said) taking into consideration the persistence you showed in following up the script, the role to be assigned to you and the schedule of shoot, were indications that you wanted this, you needed this. You even called me one time at past 11 in the evening...to which I did not reply because ...I was sleeping when you called.

You were one of the actors that I have in mind but it was a roller coaster battle in my mind on whether to push through with that decision or not.

In the end, I decided to trust my original plan to cast you in this latest movie that I am dong.

When we finally sat down to discuss your role, you told me, "Direk, I will work sober".

I dealt with you just as I dealt with other people, with respect.

When you reported on the set, you even happily declared to me, " Direk, I am sober for five days na!" I applauded and even kidded you, "Bakit five days lang, ituloy mo na!" You cannot deny that in spite of the short time that I have come to know you, I supported your intention that you want to live a sober life. Before shooting your first scene, schedule for Day 4, you even told me, you wanted to engage in business and live a different life, a different Baron, different from what others think about you.
