Thalapathy
Vijay's
recent
release
Leo
has
been
making
headlines
since
it
was
announced.
After
all,
it
marks
the
superstar's
second
collaboration
with
ace
filmmaker
Lokesh
Kanagaraj.
Also
starring
Trisha
Krishnan
and
Sanjay
Dutt
in
the
lead,
the
action
thriller
has
been
one
of
the
most
anticipated
releases
of
the
year.
However,
despite
the
substantial
buzz,
Leo
has
opened
to
average
reviews.
But
the
average
reviews
have
failed
to
impact
the
box
office
collection
of
Leo
as
the
movie
has
been
doing
wonders
at
the
box
office.
After
a
phenomenal
start
at
the
box
office,
Leo
has
been
going
strong
at
the
box
office
in
the
first
week
especially
in
Tamil
Nadu.
After
becoming
the
fastest
movie
to
cross
Rs
100
crores
mark
in
Tamil
Nadu,
Leo
is
now
beaten
Jailer
and
KGF
2.
According
to
a
report
published
in
Sacnilk,
Leo
had
minted
Rs
27.9
crores
in
Tamil
Nadu
on
day
4
(first
Sunday).
It
has
managed
to
beat
Jailer
and
KGF
2
with
a
huge
gap
as
the
Rajinikanth
starrer
had
earned
Rs
23.9
crores
on
its
day
4
while
KGF
2
had
minted
Rs
9.2
crores.
Interestingly,
Leo
has
been
unstoppable
at
the
box
office
as
it
has
managed
to
cross
Rs
200
crores
mark
in
five
days
of
release.
Reportedly,
Leo
will
be
witnessing
a
massive
drop
in
collections
today
(day
5/first
Monday)
and
will
be
minting
Rs
25.81
crores
at
the
box
office.
If
the
reports
turned
out
to
be
true,
it
will
take
the
overall
collection
of
the
movie
to
Rs
207.76
crores.
It
is
evident
that
Leo
is
continuing
its
winning
run
at
the
box
office
and
is
likely
to
cross
more
milestones
in
the
coming
days.
This
isn't
all.
Leo
has
also
crossed
Rs
400
crores
at
the
worldwide
box
office.
Earlier,
talking
about
this
much
anticipated
Thalapthy
Vijay
starrer
action
thriller,
Lokesh
Kanagraj
said,
"Leo
is
a
very
special
film
for
me.
I
have
tried
something
experimental.
I
have
no
words
to
describe
the
amount
of
work
that
Vijay
anna
put
in
for
this
movie.
And
I
am
eager
to
show
everything
to
the
audience".
