Still from Lokah Chapter 1 Chandra
Kalyani Priyadarshan and Naslen-starrer Lokah created a wave at the box office, breaking several records along the way. Backed by Dulquer Salmaan’s production house, the film is a superhero venture, part of a new universe being built in the Malayalam film industry. Dulquer Salmaan and Tovino Thomas appear in special roles, paving the way for future installments. After a successful theatrical run, the film is now gearing up for its OTT release.
Lokah OTT release
According to reports, Lokah Chapter 1: Chandra will be available to stream on JioHotstar from October 20 as part of the Diwali lineup on OTT platforms. The makers are yet to officially announce the streaming date. Usually, 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.
Lokah beats box office records
In just 39 days, Lokah, headlined by Kalyani Priyadarshan and Naslen, earned Rs 118.94 crore at the Kerala box office alone. The previous record was held by Mohanlal’s Thudarum (April 2025), which earned Rs 118 crore. Earlier, Manjummel Boys held the highest-grossing Malayalam film record in India, while Empuraan led globally. Now, Lokah has also become the first Malayalam film to enter the Rs 300 crore club worldwide.
