If the person in Himachal Pradesh leading a sedate and happy life with a wife and two children is Parthiban… then who is Leo? People who managed to find a ticket in the past two days know the answer to this. However, the ones who haven’t got a ticket and smartly stayed away from the social media conversations around the film, might not have a clue.
For those people, the intrigue goes up a notch as the makers drop a surprise single from Leo, titled Villain Yaaru? Composed by Anirudh Ravichander, there are no prizes for guessing who has sung the song, written by Vishnu Edavan. In a welcome move, he is joined by Shaktisree Gopalan in this trippy number that comes out of nowhere in the film and impresses one and all.
Here’s the video:
Leo, which marks the second collaboration between director Lokesh Kanagaraj and Vijay, has been setting the cash registers on fire. The makers, Seven Screen Studios, announced that the film grossed 148.5 crores at the global box-office becoming the biggest opening at the global level for an Indian film.
Apart from Vijay, Leo stars Trisha, Mansoor Ali Khan, Gautham Vasudev Menon, Priya Anand, Mysskin, Sanjay Dutt, and Arjun.
Leo, which was released on Thursday, continues to go strong as it is breaking records not just in Tamil Nadu, but in the neighbouring states of Kerala and Karnataka too.
