Tamil superstar Vijay's much-awaited Leo trailer is here. Written and directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, the film features Vijay in a rugged avatar as he fights a serial killer, truckloads of gangsters and a hyena, of course. The trailer opens to an aerial view of the Kashmir Valley. In the background, we can hear a voice narrating the story of a serial killer, played by ace choreographer Sandy Master, who is ruthless. He stands in the middle of a road and shoots blindly. Next, we get a glimpse of Sanjay Dutt's Antony Das and Arjun's Harold Das. Here comes Thalapathy Vijay's “brave and bold police officer” who “walks in like a lion and fires at the serial killer”. Things turn upside down as Sanjay Dutt's deadly villain walks into the scene to haunt Vijay. He says, “He [Vijay] can fool this town. He can fool this world. But he can't fool me”. Vijay, who has been trying to keep his family away from the dark reality of his past life, finds it hard to cope with the gangsters. Now, the question is — will Vijay be able to save his family from the horror? Well, we will have to wait till October 19.
The trailer also introduced us to Gautham Vasudev Menon's police officer. Actress Trisha Krishnan plays Vijay's wife in the film.
The Leo trailer, within an hour of its release, collected more than 10 million views.
