The Kollywood has been captivated by ‘Leo’ mania, despite the film’s recently released trailer getting a mixed response. The Thalapathy Vijay starrer is all set to grace the cinemas on October 19. It is said to be the most violent film in Vijay’s filmography, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj. Now, the film has reportedly got affected by Censorship as a few important scenes were cut, which has made Lokesh Kanagaraj express his disappointment.

Reportedly, the Censor Board has asked the makers to cut a few scenes from Leo because those scenes were very violent that cannot be watched by even 18+ audiences. It is said that the deleted scenes involve some action sequences as well. Also, Lokesh had to mute a few bad words from the movie’s dialogues. “I felt a little disappointed as we can’t place those scenes, but we can’t do anything as the Censor board told to remove” said Lokesh as per the reports.

However, the film ‘Leo’ was cleared by the censor process in the UK without any cuts, as announced by the distributor today. The movie’s first half lasts 1 hour, 13 minutes and 9 seconds, while the second half lasts 1 hour, 30 minutes and 3 seconds. Leo’s exact runtime is 2 hours 43 minutes and 12 seconds (163.12 minutes). This is being shared on social media at the moment.

The film’s other highlight is the return of Vijay and Trisha’s combo after 15 years. Their last collaboration was in Kuruvi (2008). Vijay and director Lokesh Kanagaraj have collaborated on Leo again after Master. The film further features Sanjay Dutt, Arjun Sarja, Mysskin, Gautam Vasudev Menon, and Sandy in key roles with Anirudh Ravichander composing the tunes. Lalith Kumar has produced the film, Leo, under the banner of Seven Screen Studio.
