I thought he was going to be a free agent, I guess not. “Por” Nattawut Skidjai has signed a contract with Ch3 for 5 years. At the prayer/opening ceremony of his first lakorn with Ch3, “Koo Deuat (The Furious Duo)”, starring along side Aum Atichart, the media caught up with Por to chat with him about moving to and his contract with Ch3.
“Today I feel very excited, I don’t know if anyone else feels the same way. Sometimes people look for new things, search for a new inspiration. Like today, what you are observing, I’m sweating nervous, and I like it. I am excited because I have found what I was searching for. The act of working with a person who I thought I would never have the chance to work has made me excited and given me fire to have new work for the viewers.”
About his contract with Ch3: “I have to tell you frankly that my intentions were to be a free agent; however, Ch3 said they wanted to take care of me fully pertaining to lakorns. Whatever work comes by way from where ever, they and I can talk about it. I will have 3 lakorns per year, for 5 years. They have given me the opportunity to work with other people in other categories beside lakorns. For example, being host for a show for someone else, Ch3 and I can negotiate that. I think it’s not very restricting, it’s almost like being free.
I have to tell you, Ch3 has given me a lot of opportunities though I’m not young anymore. I would like to thank the kindness from Ch3, the kindness for signing a 5 year contract with me. I’m not young and by the time the contract is done with, I’ll be 40. They saw my significance and the determination in my work and has warmly welcomed me. Even the TV scene team have welcomed me today so warmly, it’s hot. To receive this warm welcome, it want to reciprocate it to the best of my abilities.”
Why has he taken another action role? “I have never thought I can escape from who I am. What if, what we are skilled at and the best of what we are is being an performer. In lakorns, there aren’t a lot of parts: drama, action, comedy. You can’t escape that. The image you will see me in this series will be a change. There might not be a lot action. There maybe more than just action. However, the action will be the colorful core for this series. I have a reasonable neutral perspective with my work. It’s not like I’m an actor who randomly decided to be a singer. I’m still in the world that is real. Work in this category still exist. Fans who love my work in action, they still exist and are plenty. They are still looking forward to it, how can I tarnish their dream. I want to make them happy and be happy too.”
Por has been offered the pra’ek role in “Wanalee (Forest)”, so reporters asked him about it. “It’s another interesting series. For the role, I have been given the name ‘Seua Muet (Dark Tiger)’, in “Koo Deuat (Furious Duo)”, my name is Dum (mean black). Right now, many producers are sending scripts for me to read. Some have made contact and I pass it on to P’Ae (his manager). There has been many interesting series. Some series, they just want me to play in it. I’m willing and we will have a chance to work together eventually.”
Some of Por’s fans still feel regretful that he is has moved channels, he feels their pain too. “Will you believe this the thing that I feel most regretful in my life. They are not the only ones who feel regretful. However, in this life, you have to walk up and fight with the real world.”
I think Por is a fantastic actor, I hope he does well at Ch3. I really do.
Por please don’t smile like that again. Santa’s elf much?
Awkward handshake and thumbs up time, oh yea!
What’s up?
They look so uncomfortable around each other.
Praying to the lakorn gods for good ratings.
Yes ! Por Is hella handsome, it looks like he’s fine with aum but idk about aum, i’m not really a big fan of him. I hope to see some new lakorn’s of por very soon!
I hope he works with Anne

Hee hee hee… look at Aum’s highly botoxed face! There’s not even a frown on him… maybe with the face so stiff, he may find it hard to act evil! But must admit… there’s not even a line on his forehead!!! If anyone wants to have his creaseless forehead, go to his doctor at Apex! I know cos my best freind works as a nurse there!
Oh yeah he is like saying ch7 didnt give him anything or not being fair, then why por stay with ch7 for more then 10 years. Por is not a good actor too even if people say he was the top actor in ch7, just because he’s old and been with ch7 for a long time it doesnt mean he’s good, anyway you could tell they dont like each other
EW WTF, Por use to be ok but now he’s an asshole, he just jealous of the new comer for ch7 thats why he move to ch3, he suck anyway so any channel he go to he will still be non famous. He should just stay with ch7, he was like the top 3 actor in their but whatever, thats why Aum is pra’ek not Por. Ch3 have Por,Ken,Aum,Rome,Samart,Aun,Dan,Mark,Nadet so good luck to him trying to get some fame. It’s his lost not ch7, ch7 still have Aum,Kob,C and weir and panake even if the last two mention are not good so what they are famous so ch7 dont need Por, and they are bring back old pra ek like Pete and Num who are really good.
Looking forward to Aum’s evil role. Love actors/actresses who can play different roles like Ploy C.
yay!! now ploy yui
Now that he has moved to CH3, no great actor left in CH7 lol. The good point with CH3 is that it favor elder actors over the young generation contrary to CH7. So, in this perspective, It’s better for Por to move. However, I found he did well in CH7.
Look at my man Aum isn;t he cute!ha
I’m so happy that he signed with ch.3. Maybe my hope of seeing him together with P’Ann will come true!
I think that he was the best actor in Ch.7 so him moving will be their lost. Ch7. doesn’t have those old actors anymore…Weir is okay but not that great..Cee is okay too..that’s about all..LOL
Wow..he signed 3 lakorns a year with ch.3..that was great!! Ch.3 does take care of him and treat him well..3 lakorns! Wow!
I don’t understand why people are so diappointed that he moved work.
“Today I feel very excited, I don’t know if anyone else feels the same way. Sometimes people look for new things, search for a new inspiration”.. “The act of working with a person who I thought I would never have the chance to work has made me excited and given me fire to have new work for the viewers”
–I agreed with him! He’s not young anymore and I’m glad he think that if he doesn’t look for a change he’ll never get a CHANCE to work with some wonderful ACTORS outside of ch.7…Who would want to let this chance pass by!?
Por was the only actor in Ch7 whom I can stand watching, he was the best actor they had so it is Ch7′s lost. Who do they have now, Weir? LOL.
I am so happy. Looking forward for him to work with different actresses.
I’m happy for him and all, but the problem is…ch3 has SO many actors, including new ones that they’re trying to make popular. I really wonder how many lakorns he’ll get to star in later this year, or next year.
Oh, and so much wanting to try something different, Por. Another action lakorn?
