Alden too couldn't believe the success of their film. He had earlier said, "When I saw that figure, parang I couldn't believe it, kasi that's the highest gross that any of my movies, na naging part ako, has ever reached.
"So, parang cloud-nine feeling yun for me," he added. The actor also said that he is open for a sequel of "Hello, Love, Goodbye" if possible.
