Lokah Storms into 100 Cr Club

Mollywood’s latest blockbuster, Lokah, will be joining the 100 Cr club today. The film achieves a 100 Cr milestone in the 1st week itself, which shows how sensationally it is performing in the theaters.

Also, another interesting thing is the film becomes the first female-led South Indian film to join the 100 Crore club.

Lokah became the 3rd fastest 100 Cr film for Mollywood. Mohanlal’s Empuraan crossed the milestone in 2 days, and Thudarum in 6 days. Overall the superhero film is the 12th 100 Cr film for Mollywood.

The film will definitely join the 200 Cr club in its full run. Till now, only three films made 200 Cr gross in Mollywood: Manjummel Boys, Empuraan, and Thudarum. If the film holds the same trend in the coming days, it can even go near the industry’s biggest grosser.

Lokesh Tries to Defend Coolie, But

Director Lokesh Kanagaraj is a talented and star director of South Indian Cinema. However, when it comes to reacting to the criticism of his films, the director throws some unnecessary comments. Lokesh tries to defend his latest film, Coolie, but his remarks have received negative responses. 

Lokesh Kanagaraj, in a recent interview, stated that the audiences went to watch Coolie with expectations of it being a part of LCU or containing some sci-fi elements, and that is why they were disappointed after watching the movie.

Lokesh Defends Coolie: Criticizes Audiences

The Vikram director said that he or his team did not mention that it is a part of LCU, nor did they say that it is a sci-fi movie. So, he said that he cannot make the film according to the expectations of audiences. 

Surely, Lokesh’s statement appears to defend Coolie, but it seems like again, he is trying to cover the film’s weak points by not accepting his mistakes. Even during the mixed response to the movie Leo, Lokesh Kanagaraj shared similar kinds of statements.

But Lokesh Kanagaraj needs to understand that people did not dislike the film because it was not an LCU film or a scientific one, but they did not like it because they found it flat, dragged, and unengaging, with weak characterizations and especially unnecessary star cameos.
