Vijay in Leo

Team Leo is busy with back-to-back shooting in Kashmir for more than a month, and a host of actors in the film have been staying in the northeastern state ever since the project went on floors. The makers had unveiled a few stills from the location even as fans continue to guess whether the movie is part of "Lokesh Cinematic Universe".

The crew members, including Vijay, are expected to return to Chennai by the end of this month. According to sources, a lion's share of the portions are likely to be wrapped up by June.

Touted to be a pan Indian gangster flick, Leo will hit the screens on October 19 in Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Hindi. Seven Screen Studio is bankrolling the film which has Anirudh scoring music while Sanjay Dutt, Arjun, Trisha, Mysskin, Priya Anand and Gautham Menon will be seen essaying significant roles.

The likes of Sandy and Mathew Thomas being brought on board to the movie's cast was a surprise for cinephiles. The team now has another exciting addition to the cast, which no one had anticipated.

Mollywood actor Babu Antony has been roped in by the team; the veteran actor has broken the news by taking to his Facebook page to inform that he was on his way to the location. He bumped into popular football player IM Vijayan at Delhi airport and clicked a picture along with him.

Babu's last outing in Tamil was Ponniyin Selvan 1, and the Mollywood action hero is returning to Kollywood with this much-awaited action drama. Fans are now guessing the character which has been offered to him. With Tamil cinema's "action king" Arjun already on board, movie lovers are expecting nothing short of a huge action spectacle.
