Summary
- 'Lokah' earns ₹85 lakh on 30th day, total India net collection ₹142.90 crore
- 'Lokah' maintains strong momentum despite release of Pawan Kalyan's 'They Call Him OG'
- Kalyani Priyadarshan's performance as Chandra aka Neeli praised
Kalyani Priyadarshan's fantasy epic 'Lokah: Chapter 1 - Chandra' has emerged as one of the year's biggest Malayalam hits, even as Pawan Kalyan's high-octane 'They Call Him OG' has stormed the box office. According to reports, 'Lokah' earned ₹85 lakh on its 30th day (September 26), taking its overall India net collection to an impressive ₹142.90 crore.
The film's Week 4 earnings stand at ₹13.25 crore, showing a 51% dip from the previous week but still strong for a movie running in its fifth weekend. On its 30th day, 'Lokah' recorded a respectable 19.59% overall Malayalam occupancy, with night shows touching 34.11%.
Interestingly, Pawan Kalyan's 'OG', which has already crossed ₹100 crore in just two days, does not appear to have affected 'Lokah's Kerala box office collections. Kalyani Priyadarshan's magnificent performance as Chandra aka Neeli continues to attract audiences to the cinemas, and with good reviews and the OTT release date not yet announced, the Dulquer Salmaan production venture is expected to have a great run in the upcoming days.
