Lokah’s pan-India success

But the biggest achievement for the film is that it has truly become a pan-Indian success with the Kalyani-starrer entering the Rs 100 crore club in both Kerala and overseas markets. Not just these two, the woman-led superhero movie has earned Rs 50 crore from the rest of the India collections.

The film managed to break these records, even as its collections have being seeing a drop especially from other states of Tamil Nadu, Telangana and Andhra Pradesh that have earned less than Rs 1 crore in the past few days.

Seeing the phenomenal run, Lokah makers have said that the film would not be making its digital debut anytime soon. Lokah producer Dulquer Salmaan, who also makes a cameo in the film, had put up a post, insisting that any OTT release date reports on Lokah are fake. After its theatrical run, which does look to be long, the film will head to Netflix for its OTT debut. The only major Malayalam film releasing in theatres this week is Karam, helmed by Vineeth Sreenivasan.
