Lokah, the latest Malayalam film released in the Onam competition, emerges as a big winner. Despite the competition with Mohanlal’s Hridayapoorvam, this superhero film creates history with a record-breaking weekend at the box office.
The film had a huge jump day by day on the opening weekend and collected around 65 Cr gross worldwide. The trade is shocked as Lokah has a record-breaking weekend at the box office.
Directed by Dominic Arun, the film scores the all-time 3rd biggest weekend for Malayalam cinema after Mohanlal’s Empuraan and Thudarm.
The biggest advantage for the film is the numbers also coming from the Telugu States (the Telugu version is titled Kotha Lokah), Tamil Nadu, and the Malayalam belts.
Even today also, the advance bookings are super strong for this superhero film, and the trade expects that it will easily do 150 Cr + gross in its full run and even go beyond 200 Cr + if the same trend continues.
