“Tapos may bagong record yung pelikula, ito daw yung may pinakamalaking kinita nang first day, pinakamalaking first day gross. Almost P80 million yung kinita ko sa first day,” he proudly shared.
In one of his interviews, Vice Ganda shared that he is aiming for P1 billion total box-office sales for his movie.
“It’s on its way,” he answered when asked about his P1 billion goal.
“Unlike last year, on its ninth day, saka palang ako naka P300 million pero ngayon after five days, naka-P300 million na ako. Mas mabilis yung kitaan ng pelikula ko ngayon kaysa last year,” he continued.
“After two weeks, naka-P500 million na ako, di pa kasama yung international screenings,” he added.
Meanwhile, the said movie is considered as the front runner among the 8 entries of this year’s festival.
With his ‘unkabogable’ box-office power, Vice Ganda will surely named as the 7th-time phenomenal box-office star this year.
