"In the Name of Love" Grosses P117.2-Million in 5 Weeks - Just P3-Million Away To Become This Year's Highest Grossing Pinoy Movie

Star Cinema's 18th anniversary presentation "In the Name of Love" raked a total of P117.2 million box-office receipts in 5 weeks, just P3-million short to beat other Star Cinema movie "Catch Me�I'm In Love" with a gross receipts of P120.21 million as the no. 1 Pinoy movie of 2011.

The Aga Muhlach - Angel Locsin starrer may still be showing in selected theaters but it's going to be very limited since their latest movie offering, "Forever and a Day," starring Sam Milby and KC Concepcion already opened yesterday.

"In the Name of Love" needs at least P3-million until its run last on cinemas in order to become the no. 1 Pinoy movie (so far) for this year.
