According to data from the Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA), the box office raked in more than P150 million on its first day, around P3 million higher than last year's.
Out of the eight MMFF entries, four movies stood out as Christmas Day top grossers, reported in an article from the Manila Bulletin, as follows:
"My Bebe Love," (GMA Films) with gross sales of P64.2 million;
"Beauty and the Bestie," (Star Cinema/Viva Films) P39.7 million;
“Haunted Mansion,” P19.5 million; and
“All You Need Is Pag-Ibig,” P5.8 million.
The remaining four films: “Walang Forever,” P4.9 million; “Buy Now, Die Later,” P4.4 million; “Honor Thy Father,” P3.9 million, and “Nilalang,” P1.7 million.
"My Bebe Love" is topbilled by Vic Sotto and Ai Ai Delas Alas with popular "Aldub" loveteam Alden Richards and Maine Mendoza.
According to Manila Bulletin, these figures are still unofficial as "the MMFF announced the Top 4 movies based on ticket sales but refused to reveal the rankings and earnings."
