Daniela Castro Jaramillo (born August 17, 1969 in Mexico City, Mexico) is a Mexican actress. She is the niece of the Castro Brothers, Arturo, Gualberto and Benito who have amazing talent and were an influence on her decision to enter the entertainment business.
She felt attraction for music at a very young age and this is why the entered the Centro de Estudios Artísticos de Televisa (CEA), which took her in another direction and ended up performing in some plays at some theaters in México which later on she continued to do on a few occasions.
She was offered to play at a Telenovela because of her work in Theater.
She has participated in the following Telenovelas: "Un Nuevo Amanecer" (A new dawn) (1988), "Mi segunda Madre" (My second mother) (1989), "Dias sin Luna" (Days without moon) (1990), "Balada por un Amor" (A ballad for love) (1990), "Infamia" (Infamy) (1991), "Cadenas de Amargura" (Chains of Bitterness) (1991), Triangulo (1992), "Cañaveral de Pasiones" (Canebrake of passions) (1996), "Desencuentro" (Confusion) (1997), "El noveno mandamiento" (The 9th commandment) (2001), and after a long absence she returned to play Lizabeta in "Pasión" in 2007.
She considers that "Cadenas de Amargura" (Chains of Bitterness) is the Telenovela that gave her the success and recognition that made her the actress she is today. This was not a big production and did not have a big cast in it, but the story and episodes were already written and the characters were perfectly defined which they believe is the main reason for its success. Diana Bracho was part of the cast who is one of the best actresses in México. Raul Araiza who played her boyfriend in the story was also her boyfriend in real life. Cinthia Klithbo, Delia Casanova, Fernando Luján, Alexis Ayala and Raymundo Capetillo also participated in this story. Daniela plays Cecila Vizcaino, a young girl whose parents die in a tragic accident and she is sent to her aunts house, Evangelina (Diana Bracho) is a very possessive, moral and religious person who wants to control her life, prevent her from committing sin and live a life, on the other hand her ant Natalia (Delia Casanova) is good to her and is the one that protects her. Daniela plays a very timid, quiet girl who although tries to fight for her right to live her life, trusts her ants without knowing all the pain one of them is causing her.
"Cañaveral de Pasiones" is a novel written by Caridad Bravo Adams who is the most and probably the best Telenovela writer of our time. The story was produced by Humberto Zurita and Christian Bach who have only delivered well made stories. Daniela plays Julia Santos a very sensual role compared to "Cadenas de Amargura", Juan Soler is the lead actor who plays Pablo Montero. The story is about 2 families, the Santos and the Montero, for some misunderstandings Pablos Mother Joséfina played by Angelica Aragón believes Julias mother Margarita (Felicia Mercado) who happened the most beautiful woman in the town, is the lover of her husband Amador (Cesar Evora), but she is mistaken, the one that is her husbands lover is Dinorah (Azela Robinson) Margaritas sister and Julias ant, in order to prevent her sister from running away with Amador, she goes to meet him and they end up having an accident and dying, reason for which Josefina thinks she is right and tries to make Julias life miserable. She prevents Pablo from seeing her and send him to the City to study but when he returns as an adult he sees Julia again and falls in love with her again although he is engaged. They will have to fight for their love against Josefina, Dinorah and Julias Father Fausto (Leonardo Daniel). Danielas role was played so masterfully that you would cry with her. She really makes you believe she is living what the character is. This story was very successful in several countries.
