Lokesh Kanagaraj's upcoming movie Leo has already generated a lot of buzz in the industry, and the latest development was only going to add to the excitement. It is rumoured that Lokesh had approached Vijay Sethupathi to play the role of a narrator in the movie.
It's said that Vijay Sethupathi had been asked to dedicate just three days to the dubbing process. This was a piece of great news for the fans, who were eagerly waiting to see the duo collaborate again after their success with Vikram. However, an official word on the same is awaited. Given how protective Lokesh is of Leo, it's unlikely he will reveal anything soon about Sethupathi's participation in the production.
Sethupathi played the role of Santhanam, a drug lord, in Lokesh's Vikram, but his character died in the movie. However, with Leo being an extension of Lokesh's cinematic universe, we can't discount the possibility of Santhanam making a comeback in the new movie.
The news sent the fans into a frenzy, with speculations and theories floating around about the storyline. The thought of seeing Santhanam back in action was enough to get the audience excited.
Leo underwent an extensive filming schedule in the beautiful valley of Kashmir, spanning over a duration of more than 50 days. The schedule wrapped up successfully last month, bringing a sense of relief to the entire cast and crew. Despite the challenging weather conditions prevalent in Kashmir, the team exhibited unwavering perseverance, ensuring the timely completion of the schedule. As a token of gratitude, the filmmakers released a behind-the-scenes video , showcasing the crew members' unrelenting hard work and dedication.
The movie's production is now underway in Chennai.
The movie is being produced by Seven Screen Studio, which has allotted an enormous budget for the project. With a talented ensemble cast, featuring Vijay, Gautham Menon, Trisha, Sanjay Dutt, Arjun, Priya Anand, and Mysskin, Leo is poised to be a blockbuster of epic proportions.
Leo is slated to hit theaters on October 19.
