By MARY LOUISE LIGUNAS



As Alden Richards keeps saying, “Do not underestimate the power of the AlDub Nation.”



The much-anticipated first big screen team up of Alden Richards and Maine “Yaya Dub” Mendoza in My Bebe Love #KiligPaMore shook Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) records as it posted gross earnings of 60,462,169.57 pesos on its opening day.



Over 33 million pesos from Metro Manila and over 27 million pesos from different provinces were recorded based on initial reports received by GMA Films.

My Bebe Love's gross of almost PHP 60.5 million is also the biggest opening day gross for all Filipino films to date.



The romantic comedy film also starring Vic Sotto and Aiai Delas Alas earns the lead, followed by 'Beauty and the Bestie' and 'Haunted Mansion.'



The film fest committee is set to announce official opening day box office gross within the day.
