This year was definitely a newbie year. Here is my list for Best Rising Stars of 2013.
Guys:
-James Ma -He is my number 1 rising star for the men, he is a great actor and I was blown away with his portrayal of Khun Chai Ronnapee whose personality is the exact opposite of his real-life personality. He definitely has won me over. I was and still am very impressed with him.
-Top Jaron - He is only a smidge behind JMa, he is a really good actor in my opinion. I didn't really like him in NM2, but he won me over in Khun Chai Rachanon. He nailed the role of Khun Chat/Jao Luang Rangsiman. I was very impressed with him. He played the role so well. I was also very impressed with him in Sixth Sense 2, he was amazing in that role. He is one great actor and I hope to see him as p'ek soon.
Girls:
-Esther Supreeleela -She has my number 1 vote for Rising star of 2013 for the girls. She nailed her role in Khun Chai Ronnapee to the tee. I didn't know that she had it in herself. I liked and found her to be very cute in Buang. She is a very good actress, I was very convinced and impressed with her as Mom Luang Wilairampa. I look forward to seeing her as n'ek.
-Mew Nittha -She's a pretty good actress, I thought she played the role of Than Ying Wanrasa in Khun Chai Pawornruj very well. Than Ying was very sweet and down to earth. The way she portrayed the role and her voice delivery, really impressed me, that if I did not know that she was an actress, I would have thought that she was actually a Than Ying.
