'Leo' box office collection: Vijay starrer surpassed Rajinikanth's 'Jailer', becomes the highest-grossing Tamil film of 2023

Vijay, the popular South actor, had his recent theatrical release with 'Leo', which is directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, and the film was released on October 19 for the occasion of Ayudha Pooja. Opening with record numbers for an Indian film on day 1, the action drama continued to break several box office records. Now, 'Leo' has broken another record, and the film has surpassed the overall collection of Rajinikanth's 'Jailer'. Rajinikanth starrer 'Jailer' released last August has reportedly grossed Rs 610 crores worldwide to emerge as the highest-grossing Tamil film of 2023.

But the record made by Rajinikanth's film didn't last longer, as Vijay's 'Leo' has now surpassed the mark. 'Leo' reportedly grossed over Rs 612 crores at the end of day 26, and it made the Vijay starrer gain the tag as the highest-grossing Tamil film of 2023. 'Leo' is now also the all-time second-highest-grossing Tamil film after Rajinikanth's '2.0'. The well-hyped film has developed massively at the box office, and the action drama is still getting solid occupancy in Tamil Nadu.

'Leo makers recently shared a new poster on the occasion of Diwali to list the records created by Vijay's film. So, we can expect the makers to come up with another announcement or poster soon confirming 'Leo' as the highest-grossing Tamil film of 2023.
