Panchito is perhaps best known for his over 50-plus film team-ups with Dolphy in such movies as "Kalabog en Bosyo" (1959); "Beatnik" (1960); "Si Lucio at Miguel" (1962); "Pepe and Pilar" (1966); "Pacifica Falayfay" (1969); "Fefita Fofongay" (1973); "Bugoy" (1979); and "Bakit Kinagat ni Adan ang Mansanas ni Eba?" (1989). The partnership likewise extended to television, where the duo would co-star in an ABS-CBN variety show, "Buhay Artista" (1965–1972). The tandem was famous for a comedic duet routine wherein one would interrupt the other to offer a mangled translation of a Tagalog lyric into English or vice versa. On July 4, 1966, Dolphy and Panchito opened for The Beatles at the Rizal Memorial Sports Complex during that band's infamously abbreviated concert tour of Manila.
