Dulquer Salmaan’s Lucky Baskhar Breaks Records on Netflix After Box Office Triumph

Dulquer Salmaan’s crime drama Lucky Baskhar is creating waves on OTT platforms after its successful theatrical run. Released on Netflix on November 28, the film has garnered over 5 million views in its first week, becoming the fastest South Indian movie to achieve this milestone. Securing the second spot on Netflix’s global top 10 trending list, Lucky Baskhar continues to dominate digitally, surpassing Meiyazhagan and breaking the debut week record previously held by Kalki (4.8 million views).

Directed by Venki Atluri and produced by Sithara Entertainments and Fortune Four Cinemas, Lucky Baskhar marks a remarkable comeback for Dulquer after the box-office disappointment of King of Kotha. The film earned over ₹100 crores globally, with positive reviews praising its gritty narrative and stellar performances.

Featuring a stellar cast including Dulquer Salmaan, Meenakshi Chaudhary, Surya Srinivas, and Ramki, the movie’s raw and dramatic storytelling continues to captivate audiences. Lucky Baskhar has also become the seventh most-watched South Indian film on Netflix in 2024, further cementing its legacy as a fan favorite.

With its unprecedented success both theatrically and digitally, Lucky Baskhar solidifies Dulquer’s position as one of South Indian cinema’s most bankable stars.
