New Delhi: It is Thalapathy Vijay's 49th birthday today. As fans cheer and celebrate on social media for the Tamil superstar, the makers of his upcoming film 'Leo' shared the first look poster of the film as promised. The poster has an intense look with Vijay caught in the middle of an action sequence. He yields a bloodied hammer as we see blood and flesh swept across the poster with a wild hound in the backdrop.
In the backdrop of the poster, we also see mountains and forests, all gray-shaded. The tonality of the poster is gray and intense and the look of Vijay's face is hair-raising. From the looks of the first look poster of 'Leo', it looks like the film will be a survival film.
Film critic and trade analyst Taran Adarsh shared the poster on his official Twitter handle and wrote, "VIJAY - SANJAY DUTT - LOKESH KANAGARAJ: ‘LEO’ FIRST LOOK IS HERE… On #Vijay’s birthday, Team #Leo unveils the #FirstLook poster of the film… Stars #Vijay, #Trisha and #SanjayDutt… Directed by #LokeshKanagaraj.
