Thalapathy Vijay, Trisha Krishnan and Sanjay Dutt led Leo, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, is still pulling in audiences for the Hindi version after 17 days. The film, on its 17th day, crossed the Rs 25 crore nett mark and it looks to be adding around 3-5 crores more from here, depending on how well it holds post the release of Tiger 3 in Diwali. The collections so far are impressive for a dubbed Hindi film which didn't see a release in top national chains like PVR, Inox, Cinepolis and Miraj. The reason why Leo didn't release in these chains was since the makers wanted an early digital premiere for the film's Hindi version and the national chains were not ready to budge.

Leo Has Netted Over Rs 25 Crores In Hindi And Has Acted As A Good Filler In Pre-Diwali

Leo (Hindi) could have collected around 15-20 percent more than what it has, had it seen a release in top national chains too. However, the few crores of added share would no where match the added revenues that the makers got from the lucrative digital deal, for an early premiere. Regardless, Leo is a success story in Hindi. It has been the most preferred film in the pre-Diwali phase for the Hindi cinegoers so far. 12th Fail is on the crest of a wave and will be crossing Leo's Hindi numbers in its eventual run. Both Leo and 12th Fail have been great fillers for Indian exhibitors in what could have been a very lean phase otherwise. Talking about global numbers, Leo has grossed over Rs 600 crores, meaning it is the highest grossing Tamil film of the year, ahead of Jailer.
