‘Leo’ is an action-thriller film that was released on October 19. The film has achieved a grand total of Rs 180 crore within its first four days of release and is currently on its way to surpass Rs 200 crore.
Talking about the film's box office collection, according to the Sacnilk report, it was predicted that ‘Leo’ would earn Rs 40 crore on Sunday; however, the film managed to earn Rs 41.50 crore on Sunday, bringing its total domestic collection to Rs 181.35 crore.

The film has been met with a mixed response, with some praising it as a ‘blockbuster’ while others criticizing it as ‘boring’. “Despite the reasons for ‘Leo’s transformation, the film is not a meditation on the consequences of choosing violence or abandoning it. In fact, it celebrates being badass—the film ‘Leo’, after all, we see a spark of pure evil when Parthiban finally admits his origins," wrote the Hindustan Times.
The film ‘Leo’ is directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj and produced by SS Lalit Kumar. Apart from Vijay, the film also features Sanjay Dutt, Trisha Krishnan, Arjun Sarja, Mansoor Ali Khan, Priya Anand, Mysskin, and Gautham Vasudev Menon.
