  "summary": "Malaysian film Chelot, directed by Adrian Teh, has crossed the RM10 million mark in box office collections, adding to the growing list of successful releases from the country in 2026. The action-thriller, which maintains its No. 1 position on the box office charts for 11 consecutive days, has continued to grow in popularity with the addition of more halls to accommodate demand. Chelot's record-breaking action sequence, which holds a place in the Malaysia Book of Records for the longest single-take action sequence, and its commitment to practical filmmaking have been key factors in its success. The film stars a cast including Beto Kusyairy, Shukri Yahaya, Shaheizy Sam, and Nadhir Nasar, and follows the story of special operations police officer Inspector Haqqim, who becomes an informant for a dangerous weapons-smuggling ring.",
