In her post, Priyanka wrote: “India’s first female superhero is here. Congratulations @dqsalmaan and the entire team of Lokah. This story has already been winning hearts in Malayalam, and now, it’s out in Hindi too. P.S. added it to my watchlist already! Have you?”
Lokah, directed by Dominic Arun and produced by Dulquer Salmaan under Wayfarer Films, stars Kalyani Priyadarshan in the lead role. The film also features Naslen and Sandy in key roles. It was initially released in Malayalam and was later dubbed into Hindi, gaining traction with audiences across different regions.
The story follows Chandra, a mysterious woman summoned back to India by her leader, Moothon (voiced by Mammootty). As she returns, she faces new challenges, including a confrontation with Inspector Nachiyappa, played by Sandy.
The film recently crossed Rs. 100 crores mark at the global box office, making it the highest-grossing South Indian female-led film to date. It has been praised not just for its storytelling and visuals but also for presenting a superhero narrative from a woman’s perspective.
Earlier this week, Dulquer Salmaan attended a success event in Hyderabad, where he spoke about how Lokah was a deeply personal and experimental project. He credited screenwriter and actor Santhy Balachandran for bringing an authentic female voice to the film and acknowledged the need for more stories that move away from the typical male gaze.
With strong audience response and support from notable figures like Priyanka Chopra, Lokah Chapter 1: Chandra is making a significant impact and has sparked interest in female-led superhero stories in Indian cinema.
