Puregold CinePanalo’s Blockbuster Hit “Multwoh (Patay na Patay Sa'yo)” Earns Extended Screenings at Ayala Cinemas Nationwide

Due to massive public demand, “Multwoh (Patay na Patay Sa'yo)” has announced a nationwide theatrical run, with screenings in 13 Ayala Cinemas across the country. Named the audience’s choice from seven full-length films that participated in the Puregold CinePanalo festival, “Multwoh” was a blockbuster smash with sold-out screenings being reported all over the metro.

Coming off one of the most successful Puregold CinePanalo runs to date, “Multwoh” was not only a hit with audiences but among critics as well. The film reaped four awards during the festival’s annual awards night: Always Panalo award, Panalo sa mga Manonood, Panalo sa Production Design, and Panalo sa Brand Intrusion.

With accolades and rabid audiences behind it, “Multwoh” is now coming to theaters nationwide, including cinemas in Cebu, Cagayan de Oro and more.

What made “Multwoh” such a monster hit?

For one, the film was driven by the star power of its viral lead Sassa Gurl, as well as the crew’s sensational promotional maneuvers. On top of various press interviews and online appearances, Sassa Gurl gamely slid into a coffin in a public display that was meant to sow intrigue among cinema fans about the film’s premise.

While receiving the audience choice award at the Puregold CinePanalo Awards Night, Rodina Singh spoke on the importance of viewers choosing queer stories.

“To me as a filmmaker, this [Panalo sa Manonood award] feels the most validating among all the awards for tonight,” said Singh. “Sumali po ako sa pagpepelikula na ang tanong sa samin, ‘may manonood ba ng kwentong gusto niyong ikwento?’ Sa pangatalong pagkakatoon, sasabihin ko po na ang ‘Multwoh’ ay nahigitan na ang lahat ng screenings ng una ko pang pelikula at pangalawa.”

The film’s success speaks to the hunger that Pinoy audiences have for diverse stories. Far from alienating audiences with its queer characters and unabashedly proud tone, “Multwoh” has been a commercial dynamo attracting viewers of all ages and backgrounds.

“Multwoh (Patay na Patay Sa'yo) returns to the big screen starting October 21 at Glorietta, Trinoma, Market! Market!, Fairview Terraces, Ayala Malls Manila Bay, Ayala Malls Circuit, Ayala Malls Feliz, Ayala Malls Cloverleaf, Ayala Malls Marquee, Ayala Malls Harbor Point, Ayala Malls Center Cebu, Ayala Malls Centrio, and Ayala Malls Central Bloc.

BGC Pinoy Playlist Musikahan 2026: A New Way to Celebrate Music Together on October 17-18

A new major twist to music celebrations is coming to Bonifacio Global City as BGC Pinoy Playlist Musikahan (PPM) 2026 takes place on October 17 and 18, 2026, bringing Filipino artists, music lovers, families, friends, and communities together for two days of performances, experiences, and collective music-making.

Under the spirit of “Musikahan,” the two-day celebration will explore the many ways Filipinos experience, share, and make music together. From harmonizing with a group and singing songs through a reimagined karaoke session, to serenading (“harana”) special person/s and creating music through interactive activities, PPM 2026 celebrates how music can bring people together and connect us to different aspects of our lives.

A Musikahan Made for Everyone

PPM 2026 will feature a series of especially curated musical experiences designed to encourage participation and showcase the evolving musicality of Filipinos.

Before the main event, On Cue, an online live music and storytelling series will allow audiences to hear artists perform their songs and share their personal stories and experiences in music-making with a twist of a popular Pinoy game, Tumbang Preso. The series will air on BGC Arts Center’s social media channels and will be available to stream for free.

Bringing music beyond the festival venue, Harana on the BGC Bus will surprise commuters with a special live serenade from a featured artist aboard a regular BGC Bus route.

During the two-day celebration, audiences can experience a variety of programs that celebrate Pinoy music and honor artists who have contributed to the Philippine music scene.

From Pinoy Playlist Conversations where speakers will share stories, insights, and their expertise about relevant topics in music; Special performances from beloved Pinoy performers and rising artists; SALINAWIT performances where we can breathe new life to foreign songs as translated to our native languages; Music-Making Zone where attendees can unleash their creativity through various interactive music experiences; to Modern Harana where you can have artist serenade a special person/s at special spots in BGC.

PPM 2026 will also recognize the excellent life-long work of Pinoy musical figures through the Ryan Cayabyab Awards. This year’s awardees are Dr. Grace Nono, Prof. Chino Toledo, and Noel Cabangon.

On Saturday, October 17, witness how individual voices can come together as one through One-Day Choir. In partnership with DIWA Singing Club, facilitated by Toma Cayabyab and Irvs Redor, this offers a new experience to unleash voices and meet new people who share their interest in music.

On Sunday, October 18, sing your heart out in Community Karaoke, where participants can sing along with a live show band playing favorite songs from a curated and voted list of Original Pilipino Music.

Experience these two unique experiences with the Special Highlight Event Bundle tickets.

At its core, PPM 2026 celebrates how Filipino musicality extends far beyond the concert stage. It lives in karaoke sessions, family gatherings, spontaneous sing-alongs, jam sessions, serenades, and everyday moments shared with friends and loved ones.

BGC Pinoy Playlist Musikahan 2026 will take place on October 17 and 18, 2026, at BGC Arts Center, Bonifacio Global City, Taguig City.

Eight decades after its founding, Pascual Laboratories, Inc. (PascualLab), continues to evolve alongside Filipino families, introducing family-friendly health and wellness products that address changing consumer needs, while remaining rooted in the values of quality, care and malasakit.

Founded in 1946 by Isosceles and Leonora Pascual to address the post-war needs of Filipinos, PascualLab has grown from a family-founded enterprise into the company behind household brands such as: Ascorbic Acid (Poten-Cee), Vitex negundo L. Lagundi Leaf (Ascof Lagundi), C-Lium Fibre, and OraCare Mouthrinse. Guided by its vision of Strong, Healthy Families, PascualLab continues to mark its 80th anniversary with the #GalingThatKeepsGoing, a theme that honors its heritage, reflects its purpose, and celebrates the Filipino excellence carrying it into the future.

Galing (Healing)

Over time, the health and wellness needs of many Filipinos have changed. This 2026, PascualLab continues to evolve alongside them, offering new health products and innovations designed to make everyday wellness relevant and accessible to every Filipino family.

These include the launch of MyColla-C, a premium Collagen + Vitamin C support for those in their mid-30s and 40s as they embrace their next brightest chapter; and Paracetamol + Vitamin B1 + Vitamin B6 + Vitamin B12 (Alevia-B) for triple action relief of mild to moderate muscle, joint, and nerve pain.

The company also relaunched its Poten-Cee Gummies, Ascorbic Acid in a yummy, gummy format to support the Vitamin C needs of young members of the family;and Pelargonium sidoides DC. Root (PELARGO), a natural option for relief from the common cold.

Galing (Excellence)

Behind these innovations is the galing of PascualLab’s people -- professionals whose expertise, commitment and malasakit continue to move the company forward.

For PascualLab, however, excellence is not only about creating innovative and relevant health products – it's also about making them accessible and affordable. In celebration of its 80th year, the company also offered Php 80 off selected products through one of the country’s top drugstores, as a gesture of gratitude for the many years of continued trust and support.

Galing (Roots)

Through it all, PascualLab is inspired by its vision of Strong Healthy Families while remaining rooted in the spirit of care or malasakit upon which its founders built the company.

As it celebrates its 80th this 2026, it celebrates a legacy founded on quality and care – and looks ahead to a future of stronger, healthier Filipino families. That is the #GalingThatKeepsGoing.
