Fans are very excited about the partnership between Thalapathy Vijay and Lokesh Kanagaraj, who worked together on the hit movie Vikram. But the talk of the town is that Vijay allegedly charged a jaw-dropping amount for the movie. The actor is said to have made more money than South Indian stars like Prabhas, Allu Arjun, and Mahesh Babu, who usually get around Rs 150 crores per movie. There have been rumours that Vijay charged an unheard-of Rs 200 crores for 'Leo', but neither the film's team nor the celebrity himself have confirmed this.

There's no denying Thalapathy Vijay's success on social media. His loyal fans put him at the top of trending lists year after year.

'Leo' has a great group of actors in it, and the first day of shooting took place in Kashmir. When the project was announced, it was done in an exciting and catchy way. Thalapathy Vijay has been a big name in the business for more than 20 years. His family and friends call him Joe, and his next movie, Thalapathy 68, will be directed by Venkat Prabhu.

Lokesh Kanagaraj, who is known as one of the best filmmakers in the business, wants to make ten films before trying something new. He has also said that after he finishes 'Leo,' he wants to write a script for Prabhas. This shows how dedicated and passionate he is about telling stories.
