The highly-anticipated Telugu release of “LEO,” an action-packed entertainer starring Vijay and directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, has hit an unexpected roadblock. It was set to have a grand premiere on October 19, generating immense excitement among fans. The film features a star-studded cast, including Sanjay Dutt, Trisha, Arjun, Gautham Vasudev Menon, Mysskin, Mansoor Ali Khan, and Priya Anand in significant roles.
However, an unforeseen legal issue has led to a delay in the Telugu version’s release. The court’s ruling has pushed the Telugu release date to at least October 20, 2023. This surprising development has taken both the film’s producers and eager fans by surprise. As legal proceedings unfold, everyone is eagerly awaiting updates and a resolution to this issue to determine the fate of “LEO” in the Telugu market.
On a more positive note, the filmmakers received a much-needed reprieve when the Madras High Court granted permission for early morning screenings. Justice Anita Sumanth of the Madras High Court has directed the Tamil Nadu government to reconsider the possibility of having five daily shows starting at 7 a.m. from October 19 to October 24.
The decision regarding the special 4 a.m. show on October 19 was postponed due to the absence of a formal challenge to the corresponding government order (GO). Keep an eye out for further updates as this situation continues to develop.
