Vijay's upcoming 'Leo' is expected to see a massive opening in the UK, as indicated by the advance ticket booking. It has already beaten the record set by Mani Ratnam's 'Ponniyin Selvan I.' The film marks Vijay and filmmaker Lokesh Kanagaraj's reunion after the 2021 blockbuster 'Master.'
Film trade analyst Taran Adarsh shared the latest update on the film's advance booking numbers. He wrote, "Vijay: 'Leo' setting new benchmarks… #ThalapathyVijay’s #Leo is shattering records #Overseas. Distributed in #UK and #Europe by #AhimsaEntertainment, with 19 days left, the film has already taken the *#Tamil* Day 1 #BO crown in #UK from the previously held #PS1. #Leo is targeting to surpass the current single-day earnings for an INDIAN film in #UK, a record presently held by #Pathaan."
The film's audio launch event, which was scheduled for September 30, was canceled due to "overflowing pass requests and safety constraints." Production banner Seven Screen Studio shared the news on X. "Considering overflowing passes requests & safety constraints, we have decided not to conduct the Leo Audio Launch. In respect of the fans' wishes, we will keep you engaged with frequent updates," the studio posted. The banner also said the event's cancellation was not "due to political pressure or any other reasons."
