Advance Booking Opens In The UK For Thalapathy Vijay’s ‘Leo: Bloody Sweet

The advance booking for Thalapathy Vijay’s upcoming film ‘Leo: Bloody Sweet’, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, has opened with a bang in the United Kingdom. The film is set to release on October 19, and its advance booking began on September 7. As of now, the film has opened in 92 locations for 175 shows and has already sold over 5,500 tickets, accumulating a total of over 60,000 pounds (approximately $76,000) in just 12 hours. These numbers are already considered a record, and additional figures from some screens are yet to be reported. ‘Leo: Bloody Sweet’ stars Thalapathy Vijay, Trisha, Sanjay Dutt, Gautam Vasudev Menon, and Anurag Kashyap. The film is generating significant buzz and excitement for various reasons. Firstly, it reunites the successful pair of Vijay and director Lokesh Kanagaraj after the blockbuster ‘Master’. It is also a part of Lokesh’s Cinematic Universe, which aims to connect projects like Karthi’s “Kaithi” and Kamal Haasan’s ‘Vikram’. The film marks the return of Vijay and Trisha as an on-screen pair after a gap of 17 years. It also marks Sanjay Dutt’s debut in Tamil cinema and his second appearance in an Indian regional film after ‘KGF 2’, where he plays one of the antagonists. In ‘Leo: Bloody Sweet’, he is reportedly playing Vijay’s father. The film was officially announced in January 2023 and has been eagerly anticipated by fans. It was shot in various locations, including Kashmir and Chennai, and will be released in Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Hindi languages.
