MANILA, Philippines – Born Beautiful, the upcoming sequel to the acclaimed 2017 film Die Beautiful, received an R-18 rating from the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB).

However, the full uncensored version of the comedy-drama starring Martin del Rosario and Paolo Ballesteros will be available for a one-night screening on Friday, January 18.

"BORN BEAUTIFUL is rated R-18 with cuts by the MTRCB. But before we open in the cinemas on January 23, we will show the full UNCENSORED VERSION for ONE SCREENING ONLY at the UP Cine Adarna on January 18, Friday at 7pm," Martin said in his post.
