Can Leo Become an Industry Hit? This is the question and the discussion point of the Vijay fans and Kollywood trade circles. It is widely known that the latest action thriller of Thalapathy Vijay and Lokesh Kanagaraj has been gathering massive numbers at the box office since its release. Now, let’s observe a detailed analysis of Leo Industry Hit chances.
For 5 days, Leo’s approximate collections are 402 Crs worldwide
- Tamil Nadu – 125 Cr
- Kerala – 40 Cr
- Karnataka – 31 Cr
- AP/TG – 33Cr
- ROI – 18Cr
Total all India gross is approx. 247 Cr, and the Overseas Gross will be around 155 Cr. So, if we put together all the numbers, the film’s Total Worldwide Gross for 5 days is 402 Cr.
The film will surely reach the Top 3rd place in Kollywood films and is expected to join the 500Cr club by the upcoming Friday. After this, how the movie will sustain will decide the possibility of an industry hit.
For all versions, the Top 2 films of Kollywood are 2 Point 0 at 665Cr and Jailer at 625Cr Gross. Now it looks like there is no chance of Vijay’s Leo to beat 2 Point 0, and the latter is expected to remain at the top 1 position unless there is a heavy 2nd weekend for Lokesh Kanagaraj’s directorial.
If we take only the Tamil version, Rajinikanth’s Jailer is the industry hit with more than 500 Cr+ Gross. In its Tamil version, Leo has collected around 350Cr as of now. Hence, it needs to collect another 150Cr+ to become a Tamil version industry hit, which is an exciting battle, and the film has a chance to do so in Tamil Nadu. Only this film has an opportunity to do another 100Cr Gross.
While in Kerala, it will easily do another 20Cr at least, and in Karnataka, another 15Cr. At the Overseas, it is expected to collect at least 5M from here, which means around 40Cr Gross. So 175Cr can be anticipated at a minimum from here for the film and can go beyond the estimates unless there is a considerable drop.
So, for the Tamil version, Leo will most likely become an industry hit, and for all versions, the trade is estimating it will be a tight battle between Jailer and Leo for the Top 2; 2 Point 0 is likely to settle at the no1 for a few more months.
