Kalyani Priyadarshan’s latest film Lokah Chapter 1: Chandra has struck a chord with audiences in Malayalam cinema and beyond. The superhero drama, directed by Dominic Arun, is winning over viewers in Tamil and Telugu as well.
The film had a strong opening weekend, and what mattered more was its performance on Monday, a day that usually decides whether a movie can sustain. Lokah managed to hold firm, giving its makers confidence to take the next step.
The team has now confirmed that the movie will soon be released in Hindi. While the exact date hasn’t been revealed, the announcement itself is a big push, especially since the film continues to add shows in multiple centers due to audience demand.
If the Hindi version clicks, it could open new ground for the film at the national box office. It would also mark another milestone for Malayalam cinema breaking barriers across languages.
Apart from Kalyani Priyadarshan, the cast includes Naslen, Sandy Master, Tovino Thomas, Sunny Wayne, and Dulquer Salmaan, who also produced the film. Music is by Jakes Bejoy.
