It can be recalled that Jiro sold his Gawad Urian Best Actor trophy, which was awarded to him in 2004 for his excellent performance in the movie ‘Magnifico.’

In an interview with the Philippine Entertainment Portal, Allen, who achieved 50 acting trophies during his career, said that he was not in the position to judge Jiro in his decision.

However, Allen pointed out that Jiro’s trophy could be considered a priceless possession.

“Hindi ko alam kung ano yung nasa isip niya, ano ang nasa utak niya, kung kailangan niya ng pera, kailangan niya ng ganito. Pero siyempre, kung ikaw artista ka, kumbaga ipagmamalaki mo na iyan hanggang tumanda ka na,” said Allen.

“Hanggang sa mga apo mo, at kapag namatay ka na, meron kang legacy na, ‘Ito si Jiro Manio, Best Actor ng Urian!’ It’s priceless, hindi mo puwedeng ibenta ng kahit magkano iyan,” he added.

Allen admitted that he was saddened when he heard about what Jiro did.

Jiro shared that he used the money he got from selling the trophy to spend the Holidays with his family.

“Hindi naman po ako nahirapan dahil as part of my belongings, ipinagkatiwala ko naman po yon kay Boss Toyo at lahat naman po ay naging sigurado,” he stated.

“Siguro dala na rin ng hirap sa buhay, siguro maiintindihan ako ng mga tao na kailangan ko rin, may pangangailangan din ako,” he added.
