MANILA, Philippines - The most-talked about sequel to the 2009 Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF), Ang Panday 2, marks the big screen as it remains unstoppable from baiting the moviegoers nationwide.

With all the positive reviews and praises on the film, the cast and production’s sleepless nights and hardwork paid off. Ang Panday 2 lead star Sen. Bong Revilla Jr. expresses his utmost gratitude on the blockbuster success of his film: “Ako ay nagpapasalamat sa mga nanood ng ipinagmamalaki naming pelikula na talagang pinaghirapan at pinaglaanan ng panahon. Nakakataba ng puso na nakapagpasaya kami ng mga tao at nakapagbigay ng ngiti sa mga bata.”

Instead of celebrating and promoting the film, Sen. Bong went back to Cagayan de Oro and Iligan yesterday to share his blessings with Typhoon Sendong victims. He also encourages every Filipino to pray and take part in helping the typhoon victims recover from the painful tragedy they have encountered.

Meanwhile, millions of moviegoers flocked to the cinemas to watch the grandest entry to this year’s MMFF, Ang Panday 2.
