MANILA -- Fernando Carrillo, the leading man in the hit Mexican telenovela "Rosalinda" starring Thalia, arrived in the country on Tuesday.
The actor is back in the country for endorsements and to create a reality show, which will give birth to a new singing group.
Carrillo, who played the role of Fernando Jose in "Rosalinda," has visited the country a number of times to touch base with his fans.
