Chennai, October 23 - Tamil blockbuster Leo has crossed the 300 crores gross mark in just 4 days and is now Thalapathy Vijay's highest-grossing film at the worldwide box office. It surpassed the lifetime collection of "Varisy", which grossed approximately 298 crores earlier this year. ## Directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, "Leo" grossed an estimated 68 crores worldwide on Sunday, pushing the total collection to 360+ crores during the extended opening weekend. In India, the movie was easily the number 1 with approximately 213 crores while overseas, it scored an estimated $18 million (149 crores) through Sunday. ## "Leo" was also one of the highest-grossing films worldwide during the weekend of October 20 - October 22, 2023. After superstar Shah Rukh Khan's mega-blockbusters, "Pathaan", and "Jawan", which were the highest-grossing films worldwide during their opening weekends, "Leo" is the third Indian movie of the year to be able to find a spot among the biggest weekend grossers in the world. ## Produced by Seven Screen Studio, "Leo" is part of director Lokesh's cinematic universe (LCU), and by tomorrow, it will become the highest-grossing film in the LCU by beating Kamal Haasan's "Vikram" which grossed approximately 415 crores worldwide last year. The latest LCU blockbuster is also expected to become the first 500 crores grosser in the much-talked-about universe as well as for Thalapathy Vijay and director Lokesh. ## Stay tuned...
