Lokah Chapter 1: Chandra, produced under Dulque Salmaan’s Wayfarer Films, has smashed records across Kerala. The Malayalam hit stands tall as the highest-grossing film from the region, setting new standards for the industry.
Released this August, the film earned over ₹300 crore, making it the top-earning Malayalam movie ever. After its massive success, fans waited eagerly for its OTT debut now finally arriving on JioHotstar.
The film stars Kalyani Priyadarshan as the lead heroine, supported by a strong ensemble cast. It brings together myth and science in a creative mix that captured audiences in theatres.
But many fans aren’t happy with its OTT platform. They believe JioHotstar’s limited reach and constant ads weaken the viewing experience. Some feel it deserved a global platform like Netflix to showcase Malayalam cinema’s growing influence.
With Lokah 2 already in development, excitement remains high. Dulque Salmaan’s announcement has kept the buzz alive, even as fans continue debating the choice of streaming platform for this blockbuster.
