2006 Metro Manila Film Festival

Star Cinema's Kasal, Kasali, Kasalo received the top prizes and went home with the most trophies at the 2006 Metro Manila Film Festival during its awarding ceremony at the Aliw Theater in Pasay.

The film, which starred real-life couple Judy Ann Santos and Ryan Agoncillo, won some of the major awards including the Second Best Picture, Best Actress for Santos, Best Director for Jose Javier Reyes, Best Supporting Actress for Gina Pareño, Most Gender-Sensitive Film, and the Gatpuno Antonio J. Villegas Cultural Awards among others.

As a result of this, the Executive Committee of MMFFP decided to simultaneously show all the entries on December 25 compared to the past years when some of the films are shown one week after.

[3] Octoarts Films and M-Zet Production's Enteng Kabisote 3: Okay Ka, Fairy Ko: The Legend Goes On and On and On was declared the Best Picture after festival organizers changed the criteria for the award by giving more weight to "commercial appeal".

Movie producer Star Cinema made a protest to the MMDA and wrote to then MMFF chairman Bayani Fernando, claiming that the movie Kasal, Kasali, Kasalo should have won Best Picture because it topped the final box office.
