After being in theatres for over two weeks, the film currently stands at a domestic total of Rs 101.7 core, as per industry tracker Sacnilk. The film’s worldwide collection is currently at Rs 210.5 crore, which makes it the fourth-biggest Malayalam grosser of all time. On its 15th day in theatres, Lokah Chapter One made Rs 3.85 crore.

Directed by Dominic Arun, Lokah Chapter One is produced by Dulquer Salmaan’s Wayfarer Films. In a recent interview, actor Sandy spoke about Dulquer’s support and shared with Behindwoods, “Dulquer Salmaan sir was like a teacher, who was guiding all of us students (the cast and crew) on the sets and made our jobs easier. He created a team and made us work diligently for the film.”

Sandy also opened up about the sequel and the possibility of Mammootty being a part of it, and said, “I don’t know about the next part. But everyone knows by now that it was indeed Mammootty sir’s voice only (in Lokah Chapter 1 – Chandra). Lokah 2 is definitely going to happen, but we haven’t started work on that till now.”
