So proud for another Malaysian film, let alone an animated one, having achieved so much success in just 2 weeks of screening! Already accumulating over 1.7 million admissions so far, that’s crazy!
It has even gotten the attention of our very own Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, he has given a glowing endorsement of ‘Ejen Ali The Movie’ by granting it top marks.
