Actress Annabelle Rama said business tycoon Yilmaz Bektas has asked her daughter actress-host Ruffa Gutierrez to go back with him to Istanbul, Turkey.

Rama made this announcement during a press conference for her newest endorsement of a brand of food supplement.

"Actually si Ruffa kinonvince siya na sumama na, sabi ko sa kanya (kay Ruffa) huwag kang maging tanga. Kasi alam mo bakit? Dito sa Pilipinas may freedom ka na, sikat ka pa. Ang dami mong trabaho, huwag mong sayangin ang swerte mo. Swerte ka ngayon sabi ko sa kanya. Ang swerte minsan lang papasok."

Rama said she is confident that her daughter will not go back to Turkey with her estranged husband.

"Hindi din. Parang nandoon pa din ang takot sa kanya," Rama told abs-cbnNEWS.com.

Rama also shared that her daughter is now more careful and has already distanced herself from Bektas.

Rama said her grandchildren longed to be with their father, which is the main reason they allowed the kids to meet Bektas.

Bektas arrived in the country last week.

For the first time, Rama also cleared the issue regarding her son Richard Gutierrez's alleged plan to transfer to ABS-CBN.

"Mayroon kasing tsismoso sa GMA na narinig na hindi ako nag-renew ng contract. Ako kasi hindi sa pera kasi kung talent fee walang problema... Kaya hindi naman ako nag-renew kasi may ibang problema sa GMA, hindi sila Gozon kung hindi sa mga staff na hindi pa naso-solve.

"Kailangan kasi ma-solve muna ang lahat ng problema na yan bago ako pipirma. Kasi gusto ko din nakalatag lahat ang kanyang project for two years... Pero yon ay naayos na nag-meeting kami noong isang gabi," Rama explained.

Rama admitted that up to now she still hasn't signed a renewal contract with GMA-7, but added that she will be having dinner with a GMA network boss.

Rama is also busy shooting for her upcoming movie with her daughter Ruffa.

She believes that her movie under Regal Films, directed by well-acclaimed director Jose Javier Reyes, will be a sure hit for this year.

"Blockbuster. Ang feeling ko kasi alam mo kung bakit, maski saan kasi ako pumunta, talaga pinag-uusapan. Tinatanong kung kailan ang showing at manonood sila."

Rama added that she decided to wear hair extensions especially for the movie.
