The film “Bố Già” of the versatile actor – MC Trấn Thành broke 300 billion VND (~$13 million) in box office sales making it the Vietnamese film with the highest revenue in history.
It also became the very first and fastest Vietnamese movie that garnered over 200 billion VND within a week. It has been only a few days since the premiere, so there must be higher achievements coming up next.

Particularly, on March 13th, the movie gained around 31 billion VND – the one-day highest turnover of a Vietnamese film ever since. Being an actor – film director-producer, Trấn Thành expressed “I am a thousand times more than happy, I would say that I am speechless. I am tremendously grateful for such a great support from the audience, if there is no audience, there is no Trấn Thành today”.

According to Box Office Vietnam, to achieve the aforementioned revenue, “Bố Già” had to sell out 2.4 million tickets.

One of the main reasons making the superlative accomplishment was the truthfulness of every single role in the movie. Most Vietnamese movies failed to insert the genuineness of its characters.

Moreover, Box Office Mojo (an international box office statistics site) registered that “Bố Già” was the very first Vietnamese film with the first three-day ticket sales to reach the top 3 in the world, after only two movies “Xin Chào, Lý Hoán Anh” (A Chinese film) and “Raya và Rồng Thần Cuối Cùng” (An American movie).
