Actor Vijay who entered politics, announced his decision to step away from films, after his current project, ‘Thalapathy 69’, slated to wrap up by March. However, rumors have started circulating among Tamil cinema fans about a potential sequel to his blockbuster hit ‘Leo’. While the speculation has sparked excitement, there are several reasons to believe this might not materialize.
Director Lokesh Kanagaraj, who helmed ‘Leo’, is currently busy with ‘Coolie’ and has already committed to two major projects: ‘Kaithi 2’ and a highly-anticipated collaboration with Bollywood star Aamir Khan. Fitting in ‘Leo 2’ amidst such a packed schedule would be a monumental challenge. Additionally, with Vijay gearing up for the upcoming elections, dedicating another six months to a film seems unlikely.
Despite these practical hurdles, Vijay’s fans are hopeful. They believe ‘Leo 2’ would serve as the perfect farewell project for the superstar, especially considering the immense success of its predecessor. With a worldwide gross of ₹600 crore, ‘Leo’ has set a high benchmark, and a sequel would undoubtedly carry even greater anticipation and box-office potential.
While there is no official confirmation about ‘Leo 2’, the mere possibility has kept fans buzzing. For now, all eyes remain on Vijay’s final bow in ‘Thalapathy 69’, as audiences eagerly await the superstar’s next move.
