Lokah, the Malayalam superhero film directed by Dominic Arun and produced by Dulquer Salmaan, continues to shatter records at the box office. After three weeks of its release, the film has garnered an impressive ₹260 crore worldwide, with ₹145 crore gross from India and ₹115 crore from overseas collections. This phenomenal success has catapulted Lokah to become the second highest grossing Malayalam film ever, surpassing blockbusters like Thudarum and Manjummel Boys.
With its stellar performance, Lokah is all set to cross the ₹265 crore mark, previously achieved by L2: Empuraan, and potentially join the ₹300 crore club. The film's international collection of over $12 million has been a major highlight, making it the highest grossing Malayalam film overseas. Lokah's success story is attributed to its engaging storyline, impressive visuals, and strong word of mouth. As the film continues to rake in ₹4-5 crore worldwide daily, it's poised to achieve even greater feats in the coming days.
The movie's performance in Kerala has been remarkable, with the film set to cross the ₹100 crore mark in the region soon. Lokah's success has also paved the way for a new cinematic universe, borrowing from traditional Indian folklore. With its unique blend of action, drama, and fantasy, Lokah has captured the hearts of audiences across India and beyond.
As trade pundits eagerly await the weekend numbers, Lokah's prospects of joining the ₹300 crore club seem promising. With its current trajectory, the film is likely to continue its winning streak, cementing its position as one of the biggest blockbusters in Malayalam cinema history.
