Generally, South Indian films release on OTT after a four-week window. However, the makers of Lokah decided to extend the OTT window as the film was shining at the box office. Despite clashing with Mohanlal's Hridayapoorvam and Fahadh Faasil's Odum Kuthira Chadum Kuthira, Lokah did exceptionally well at the box office in Kerala and outside the state.
