As of September 27th, 2025, Kalyani Priyadarshan's Lokah Chapter 1: Chandra is enjoying a glorious run at the Indian box office. The dark fantasy superhero film has already become the highest-grossing Malayalam movie of all time, but it refuses to slow down.

This impressive performance has put Lokah Chapter 1: Chandra just 7.10 crores away from hitting the 150 crore milestone, a feat that has never been achieved before in Malayalam cinema.

With the film's strong performance during the fifth weekend, it is expected to get very close to the 150 crore mark, potentially making history in the Malayalam film industry.
