New Delhi: 'Leo' releases on Thursday, October 19 amid massive fanfare and anticipation for thousands of Thalapathy Vijay fans. While early morning shows of 4:00 PM in Tamil Nadu were cancelled by the order of the Madras High Court, the film's first show at 7:00 AM & 9:00 AM has created a buzz on social media platforms like X, Meta and Instagram. Lokesh Kanagaraj has reunited with Vijay after the blockbuster 'Master' and fans are really high on excitement about what 'Leo' brings to screens.
As per trade analysis site Sacnilk.com, 'Leo' has even surpassed Shah Rukh Khan's 'Jawan' in advance bookings number.
'Leo' has already sold 16 lakh tickets and may sell about 20 lakh tickets before the opening day.
With the numbers that the analysis site shared, it seems that Vijay's 'Leo' has beaten Shah Rukh Khan's 'Jawan', which was released last month. 'Jawan' had sold for about Rs. 15. 75 lakh tickets in advance bookings for its opening day.
As per the same site, the Tamil version of Leo has sold 13.75 lakh tickets, whereas the Telugu and Hindi versions stand at 2.10 lakh and 20,000 tickets respectively.
However, despite the higher advance booking figure, 'Leo' has grossed a lesser amount than that of 'Jawan'. While Lokesh Kanagarj's film has collected Rs. 31 cr so far, 'Jawan' earned from Rs. 41 cr via advance booking. The difference in collection can also be because of the varied ticket pricing.
Meanwhile, 'Leo' also stars Trisha, Arjun, Sanjay Dutt, Gautham Vasudev Menon, Mansoor Ali Khan, Priya Anand and more. The film is the third installment of the Lokesh Cinematic Universe, following 'Vikram'( 2022) which starred Kamal Haasan in the lead.
After the successful 2021 blockbuster 'Master', Vijay and director Lokesh Kanagaraj reunite with the film 'Leo'.
On October 19, Leo will be available in Hindi, Telugu, Malayalam, Tamul and Kannada in 2D and IMAX.
Stay tuned for updates about Leo release live updates.
