Leo Box Office Collections Day 1: Thalapathy Vijay starrer has got a bumper opening at the box office as it crossed Rs 100 crore mark on its first day itself.
Leo Box Office Collection Day 1: Leo, starring Vijay, Trisha Krishnan and Sanjay Dutt, has created history by becoming scoring the biggest worldwide opening day for any Tamil movie. As per early estimates, Lokesh Kanagaraj’s directorial Leo has managed to collect Rs 74 crore gross in India. While its overseas collections are somewhere around Rs 66 crore.
Leo has also scored the biggest opening in Tamil Nadu in 2023, beating Rajinikanth’s blockbuster movie Jailer, according to Sacnilk.com. It has overall minted over Rs 140 crore gross at the global box office. Jailer starred Rajinikanth, Ramya Krishnan, Mohanlal, Jackie Shroff, Shivarajkumar, Sunil Varma, Yogi Babu, and Vasanth Ravi.
Leo is an action thriller which also features Arjun Sarja, Gautham Menon, Mysskin and Priya Anand in pivotal roles. Rathna Kumar and Deeraj Vaidy co-wrote the script with Lokesh Kanagaraj. The music for the film is composed by Anirudh Ravichander and its cinematography and editing have been handled by Manoj Paramahamsa and Philomin Raj, respectively.
While the film was allowed early morning shows in several states including Kerala and Karnataka, it should be noted that in Tamil Nadu, the first show of Leo began only at 9am.
News18 Showsha’s review of Leo read: “Thalapathy Vijay’s performance is easily one of the highpoints of Leo. Trisha gets a decent screen time, but her character doesn’t add much value to the story. Filmmaker Gautham Vasudev Menon has given an effortless performance. On the other hand, Sanjay Dutt is unfortunately wasted in the film. His charisma seems to be missing and his character looks weak in front of Vijay’s character in the film.”
