“I’m very well, very happy with how they’ve received the series and my character the truth, so I’m pretty satisfied,” she says, adding, “When it’s a second season it’s different because you already have the character very delineated, very defined, so it’s much easier to get into fiction. It seems to me that you enjoy it more from the beginning because it is more accurate to arrive”.*** The artist’s beginnings in show business go back to her childhood. It wasn’t a world of others: her aunt is the iconic artist Ariadna Thalía Sodi Miranda, better known as Thalía, owner of hits like “Arrasando” or “Who Cares?”. At the age of eight Camila dabbling in music and modeling, to make her acting debut in 2004 in the telenovela “Inocente de ti”, where she worked with Valentino Lanús, Helena Rojo, Lupita Ferrer and Altair Jarabo.” You grow up seeing something and it seems most normal to enter that world, although it doesn’t necessarily help you, on the contrary; at that time the world was not as open as it is today, it was a little more square, so it took me a little more work to take away the stigma of someone’s ‘niece’, and give me a name like I single actress,” she confesses.
This is how the actress participated in titles such as “The Angel on the Clock”, “Wild District” or “False Identity”. “It seems to me that already in these times and with all the work I’ve done, we’re already on the other side,” he says. In 2018 she starred in the first season of Luis Miguel’s series, a role that returns to screen this year: “It’s always a treat to work with people so talented, so cool, the truth is a team, the people behind and in front of the camera, which is what you, the audience, see, is a very talented team everything” , he says.***The series arrives three years after the first season, where we could see the birth of the star and his first steps in fame. Also the relationship with his father, Luisito Rey (Oscar Jaenada), who managed his entire career as his manager. He also recounts the disappearance of his mother, Marcela Basteri (Anna Favella), the beginning of the investigation, as well as the artist’s revelation against exploitation and fraud. His first loves, his first hits and his dreams. The new episodes show two timelines and with a plot that explores the difficulties Luis Miguel (Diego Boneta) faced in balancing his family and professional life. At the height of his success in the 1990s, the artist is in charge of the care of his brothers after his father’s death and tries to make amends for the relationship with his girlfriend Erika (Camila Sodi).
Hugo (César Bordón), representative and father figure for Micky, fights cancer, and a new representative, Patricio Robles (Pablo Cruz Guerrero), shakes things up at the talent agency. While trying to decipher his mother’s mysterious disappearance, Luis Miguel heals his own paternal wound by reconnecting with his est distanced daughter, Michelle (Macarena Achaga), whom he has not seen for more than a decade.” I think the series gave me a lot of love with people. They have a lot of love for Luis Miguel, for this character, and in interpreting the great love of his life, Erika, they gave me a very special place there in his heart. It happens to me that all of a sudden I’m on the street and people say ‘please stay together’, ‘marry’, people are looking forward to staying with Erika, it’s very nice,” he confesses. Actress Issabela ‘Erika’ Camil was a partner of Luis Miguel during her teenage years, although they had known each other since they were children. The relationship lasted seven years, although the artists preferred to keep it out of the flashes and media circle.

“I try to play the characters who are based on someone in real life with all the respect and admiration possible. Whenever you do a character has to have something in common with you, but you couldn’t do it, then you get to places where apparently it’s not you because it’s different from you, but there’s something in there that looks like it,” says Sodi.Then expands: “In the end we all share the human experience, we’re all on the same journey, and in the end we look like all human beings a little bit, because we all have the desire for love, the desire to be with someone, the romantic, the fear of losing someone or something, we share fundamental and essential things all human beings. I am very happy to be able to share characters as endearing as Erika with you.”
Off-screen, Sodi actively participates in Save The Children for the rights of children in Mexico. In fact, she is the ambassador in the campaign on #EmbarazoAdolescente and #Patrocinios, a campaign that she also supports as a sponsor.” I am always working to help, within my means, I believe that children are the future, I believe that we have to invest in the education of our countries, because without education we will not be able to move anywhere, and because children have to follow their basic needs covered… that’s a place to sleep, something to eat, clothes to wear, and after that we can start fighting other things,” he says. So I think it’s very important that people start adding to these causes, and not just putting a hashtag, post something, having an altruistic path seems important to me, and I think generation Z and millennial are very committed to helping right now,” he concludes. Filo.News also spoke with Diego Boneta, Pablo Cruz Guerrero, Juanpa Zurita, Macarena Achaga, César Bordón, Fernando Guallar.
