Reunion of Lokesh Kanagaraj and Thalapathy Vijay with an advantage of LCU factor
The duo of Lokesh and Vijay was last seen in Master, and the film was a commercial success despite the COVID-19 scare and restrictions. Watching their collaboration again was, of course, an exciting thing. Apart from that, the film saw a huge pre-release buzz due to its being a part of the Lokesh Cinematic Universe (LCU).
The goodwill of LCU’s previous films (Kaithi and Vikram) and Thalapathy Vijay’s stardom worked in Leo’s favor. As a result, the film marked a record-breaking opening of 148.50 crores gross, globally. Further, it continued the momentum both in the domestic and overseas markets.
