The censor certificate for Thalapathy Vijay's most anticipated film, ‘Leo’, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, was just obtained from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC), and it has been making the rounds on the internet. The film, which is part of the Lokesh Cinematic Universe (LCU), is due to enter theaters on October 19, generating excitement among fans and moviegoers alike. It's worth mentioning, though, that the CBFC certification came with a number of adjustments, including the muting of some swear words and the altering of brutal sequences.

It was previously claimed that the CBFC had given ‘Leo’ a U/A certificate, meaning that it is acceptable for a larger audience but with parental advice. Along with this certification, the CBFC has ordered 13 revisions to the picture, which has received a lot of attention on social media. The movie's graphic language has been muted, and some of the strong and violent sequences have been changed.

The recently released teaser for ‘Leo’ has already sparked a lot of interest. The teaser teases an emotional plot centered on an apparently mild-mannered café proprietor who becomes a local hero after an unexpected act of violence. However, his newfound popularity comes at a high cost as his old life begins to catch up with him. The teaser features a fearsome Sanjay Dutt as the antagonist, which adds to the excitement. Fans of Vijay will be delighted as he reunites with Trisha after nearly two decades, with Gautham Vasudev Menon portraying a cop.
