Lokah Reshapes The Pan India Success Formula

The success of Lokah has once again proved that Malayalam cinema is slowly cementing its position as the dark horse of the Indian cinema.

However, there’s more to what meets the eye. The fantasy drama directed by Dominic Arun is also rewriting the rules of pan Indian success formula with its performance. The Malayalam movie, starring Kalyani Priyadarshan and Naslen K Gafoor in prominent roles, has broken the myth that only big budget spectacles with prominent stars can succeed as pan Indian cinema.

With the success of Lokah, Malayalam cinema has turned out to be a notch better than Tamil cinema, which except for the Lokesh Cinematic Universe, is struggling to find the right breakthrough into the pan Indian industry.

With a collection of more than 120 crores worldwide over a low budget of 30 crores, Lokah : Chapter 1 – Chandra has proved that all it takes is a good movie made with the right intentions, and a significant credit should go deservedly to Dulquer Salmaan, the main driving force behind this movie. With movies like Karwaan, Mahanati, Solo, and Sita Ramam, the actor cum filmmaker has already proved his mettle as a successful pan Indian actor, and wants to extend the same to his own industry.
