Blessings definitely poured for Vice Ganda this year—a stable career, a happy family life, and yet another huge project before 2018 officially draws to a close: Fantastica, an official entry to the annual Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF), where the comedian keeps on exceeding expectations every year, including his own.
For his new film—during which he had the pleasure to work with his dream leading men, actors Dingdong Dantes and Richard Gutierrez, among many other promising artists—the Unkabogable Star first announced that Fantastica has earned a whopping ₽100 million on its second day of showing, beginning on December 25.
With this, Vice recently turned to Instagram to express his utmost gratitude to, first and foremost, the Almighty, for the unexpected success of the fantasy-comedy flick.
“Thank you so much, Lord God! You are the power that keeps me winning. I return to you all the glory. I pray that you bless all the people who chose to laugh and just be happy this Holiday Season. Amen,” said Vice.
From ₽100 million on its second day, Vice Ganda then shared last December 30 that the film has now reached a whopping P300 million of earnings since it premiered on Christmas Day.
Through a tweet last Sunday from the Unkabogable Star himself, who extended his utmost gratitude towards his supporters for the success of the fantasy comedy flick.
