Leo, which is currently playing in theaters, is off to an explosive start. This is how much it made on day 1 at the Indian box office!
Leo, the eagerly anticipated film from Thalapathy Vijay, has officially opened in theaters and will shortly finish its first day at the Indian box office. It was evident from looking at advance booking reports that we were going to experience the euphoria, and right now, early trends point to a ground-breaking start that will only fall short of Adipurush and Jawan. Read on to learn more.
This Lokesh Kanagaraj-directed movie has been getting good hype ever since it was announced, and the buzz only intensified after the release of the promotional materials and trailer. Since a few days ago, there have been numerous reports about how pre-sales alone are breaking box office records. Now that the huge movie is out in front of the public, let’s see how it did on the first day.
Leo debuted in theaters today amidst all the commotion, and as predicted, it took off to a strong start in the states of Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, and Telangana. This is enormous in light of the fact that many Tamil Nadu theaters decided not to screen the movie due to a purported disagreement about share allocation between theaters and the producers. Aside from these regions, the Hindi belt performance is very strong despite zero promotion.
Leo had the third-largest opening at the Indian box office in 2023 at 66-69 crores. Adipurush is in first place with 89 crores, followed by Jawan in second place with 75 crores.
So the Thalapathy Vijay starrer is off to a mind-blowing start, and it will be intriguing to see how the momentum holds throughout the course of the extended weekend.
