Sivakarthikeyan Film Drops BIG/ North Rejects Lokah / Coolie Soundtrack on YouTube


 After Amaran, Sivakarthikeyan release Madharaasi has failed the Monday sscare and numbed miserably. Unlucky streak for A R Murugadoss continue/ SK’s star power gave a good opening but after wards it slumped and Monday saw a 60 % drop. Reviews were mostly positive but word of mouth talk from non SK fans was negative as the stylish choreographed action  and songs fell flat.  Trademark SK humour- romance was missing. According to Sacnilk, Madharaasi minted ₹4.15 crore at the box office with maximum in Tamil language (₹3.5 crore), followed by Telugu version (₹6 lakh) and in Hindi the film earned ₹0.05. The movie witnessed a 61.03 per cent drop since Sunday, failing the Monday test miserably. It seems the negative word of mouth affected the business. Adding the four-day collection at the box office, the movie earned ₹40.55 crore at the box office in India. The film had an overall 25.91 per cent Tamil occupancy on Monday, with maximum reported in Puducherry (41 per cent).

While fans are looking forward to rewatching it on small screens, the makers have announced something special. A day before the film hits OTT, its original soundtrack (OST) will be released on YouTube and music streaming platforms.

Coolie holds a special place among audiences for its energetic songs and background score. Anirudh Ravichander has delivered hits such as “I Am the Danger,” “Chikitu,” “Mobsta,” and “Monica.”

The OTT reception of the film is eagerly awaited. The movie features actors such as Nagarjuna, Sathyaraj, Upendra, Shruti Haasan, and others, and is produced by Sun Pictures.

Lokah becoming a Pan Indian hit is not possible after the poor response in North belts. Mollywood recently started growing big, and now their films are doing well in Tamil and Telugu, but they are unable to crack big in Hindi. Even Lokah, which has collected double-digit gross in the Telugu States and double-digit gross in Tamil Nadu, struggled in the Hindi belt, as the collections are not up to the mark. But the advantage for the film is, because it is a franchise, if part one works well on OTT with North audiences, then the Hindi version also will add box office numbers for part 2. Lokah, with 100 Cr gross in India and around 195 Cr gross worldwide for 12 days, is all set to join the 200 Cr club tomorrow. At this pace the film is on track to chase Empuraan’s full run and to emerge as the all-time biggest grosser for Mollywood.


Following the Madras High Court order, Netflix is likely to remove Aajith’s Good Bad and Ugly from the platform, The film had its digital premiere on May 8, 2025, following its theatrical release. Ilaiyaraaja moved the Madras High Court, where Justice Senthikumar passed an interim order restraining Mythri Movie Makers from exhibiting, screening, selling, distributing, publishing, or broadcasting Good Bad Ugly on any platform, including OTT.
