@lj.aquino. It is a moth not a butterfly and it is a very large moth. If you look at the antennae you see that they are feather-like, that is typical for moths, besides some other things that are different.

Saturniidae, Samia sp., closer not possible without a wider open wing shot and even then I think it is not possible to get down to species level from a picture.
