Sassa Gurl and Joao Constancia proudly commemorated the upcoming theatrical run of their film “Multwoh (Patay na Patay Sa’yo)” today. Appearing at an exclusive screening of the film at Trinoma Cinema 6 today, the two leads star in the hugely popular film set to start screening in 13 Ayala Malls nationwide starting tomorrow.
