"You Changed My Life" Grossed P18 Million on its Opening Day

The on-screen tandem of John Lloyd Cruz and Sarah Geronimo proves its power on ticket sales once again. Their second movie team up, You Changed My Life, was reported to have raked P18 Million nationwide gross on its opening day alone last February 25 according to Star Cinema Booking and Distribution. This surpasses the P14 Million nationwide opening day gross of A Very Special Love, which premiered last year.

A Very Special Love�s box office success earned John Lloyd and Sarah the recognition as Box Office King and Queen from the SM Cinema management. The warm reception for their team up gave birth to the idea of having the sequel, You Changed My Life, which was also helmed by AVSL director Cathy Garcia-Molina and produced by Star Cinema and Viva Films. Although it�s still early to say, John Lloyd and Sarah are already projected to claim the Box Office King and Queen title once again this time around for You Changed My Life.

Although there�s a big reason to celebrate, both John Lloyd and Sarah admitted to Showbiz News Ngayon that they�re a bit sad that the whole movie experience is now over. The Pop Star Princess will go on a concert tour in North America this March and April while the award-winning actor will return to the taping of his hit teleserye I Love Betty La Fea with his ka-love team Bea Alonzo.

Sarah reveals the kind of friend she found in John Lloyd through the course of the shooting of their two films. "In this business madalang makahanap ng taong ipaparamdam sa �yo na hindi ka lang basta ka-trabaho. Hindi ka lang babatiin kasi magkatrabaho kayo, papakitaan ka ng maganda dahil may nakakakitang ibang tao. Kay John Lloyd nabura �yung perception na �yun. Nagpapasalamat ako kay Lord na binigyan niya ako ng pagkakataong makilala ang isang John Lloyd Cruz."

On the other hand, John Lloyd talked about what he will miss most about Sarah. "Meron siyang special power. She has this endearing quality to make people feel very special. Parang magic. Papasok siya ng kwarto and everyone biglang magla-light up �yung face. Instantly lahat nahahawa sa aura niya."
