Inches away from Manjummel Boys

Lokah Chapter 1 has surpassed Manjummel Boys at the worldwide box office. However, it is yet to surpass Soubin Shahir starrer in India.

Manjummel Boys concluded its Indian lifetime at 142 crores. Dominic Arun’s directorial needs less than 3 crores to achieve that milestone, which it will likely surpass in the next two days. History will be rewritten, yet again!
