Tasya Fantasya

Tasya Fantasya is an fantasy-romance Philippine drama produced by GMA Network starring Yasmien Kurdi . Yasmien reprises Kris Aquino's role in 1994 "Tasya Fantasya" film. The series began airing April 6, 2008 replacing Kapuso Sine Specials.

Tasya Fantasya centers on the enchanting and colorful world of Tasya (Yasmien Kurdi), an ugly but kind-hearted sales assistant in an optical shop, who willfully yearns for her Prince Charming’s affection. But she quickly finds out that her fate is entangled with that of a magical pair of eyeglasses that will lead her to a series of colorful adventures.

The storyline centers on Tasya, who at a very young age was orphaned and adopted by her abusive Aunt Kelay (Vangie Labalan). But Tasya, being the simple and benevolent person that she is, ignores the awfulness of her aunt.

She escapes from her unpleasant world by spending romantic moments with her prince charming, Donald (Wendell Ramos), the optical shop’s handsome model in all her dreams and fantasies. Thus, her bestfriend Mateng (Gladys Reyes) who patiently listens to Tasya’s fantasies, dubs her Tasya Fantasya.
