Star Cinema opens 2014 with a blockbuster hit – “Bride for Rent”

Technically, Kim Chiu and Xian Lim starrer “Bride For Rent” is Star Cinema’s first movie offering for 2014.

Kim and Xian bursted of spontaneous comedy in this romantic film which has grossed P21.2 million on its first day on cinemas nationwide. This movie became a goodluck charm to the local movie industry and they’re hoping that this movie will surpass the box office success of their first movie together “Bakit Hindi Ka Crush ng Crush Mo?”

Mico del Rosario, Star Cinema AdProm Manager posted this on Instagram:

The story of “Bride for Rent” revolves around the 23-year-old actress portrays Rocky, whose frantic search for a job leads her to an audition called by Rocco (Xian Lim). He is looking for a woman to pretend to be his wife, in the hope of accessing his trust fund. With the burden of preventing her family’s eviction from their rented home, Rocky takes up the role which soon spirals into a long-term act. Forced to get married in church at the request of Rocco’s grandmother (Pilita Corrales), Rocky turns the table on her employer as she blackmails him to do as she asks while they co-exist in under the same roof. The set-up is ripe for comedic moments, as in the film’s trailer, where Rocco is seen struggling with domestic responsibilities at the command of Rocky. The pretend wife has also won over Rocco’s grandmother, who sides with her in the couple’s arguments.

Soon-to-be a bride this year, Direk Mae was also the director of last year’s “She’s The One,” which starred Bea Alonzo, Enrique Gil and Dingdong Dantes. “Bride for Rent” is now showing in more than 140 cinemas nationwide.
