Immense buzz for Thalapathy Vijay's Leo

The hype around Leo is quite high due to many reasons. The main one is the fact that it is a part of the Lokesh Kanagaraj Universe. He is the director of the superhit film Vikram. In 2022, Vikram was one of the biggest films out of the Tamil market. Kamal Haasan, Vijay Sethupathi and Fahadh Faasil were superb in the movie. Shah Rukh Khan and Lokesh Kanagaraj had a warm conversation around Jawan and Leo on social media. Take a look...

Wishing the absolute best to @iamsrk sir, my dear brothers @Atlee_dir, @anirudhofficial, #Nayanthara, @VijaySethuOffl na and the entire cast and crew of #Jawan to be a blockbuster ??
