Vijay’s Leo was released last week and received mostly mixed reviews and not-so-positive word of mouth. The majority of the audience felt that this film was not on par with the other LCU films and even the connection that was established with LCU was quite underwhelming.
Despite these challenges, the film created massive records on its Day 1. With close to Rs 150Cr gross on opening day, the film created new benchmarks for Kollywood. Usually, with such talk, the films will crash on subsequent days, but Leo maintains a stronghold in all territories, and the festive days over the last two days proved extremely beneficial for the film. Here’s the region-wise breakdown of Leo collections.
Tamil Nadu – 150 Cr
Karnataka -35 Cr
Kerala- 45 Cr
AP/TG – 38 Cr
ROI- 20 Cr
Overseas- 160Cr
Worldwide- 448 Cr
Leo crossed Vikram collections yesterday and is on its path to cross Ponniyin Selvan collections. This is a record-breaking first week for Leo and it has entered the list of Kollywood all-time top four grossers.
