The press release has given permission for five shows but has not mentioned the first show timing. Theatres would not like to give a gap if the first show is at 4 AM as the next show can be only at 9 AM and if they decide to run five shows from 4 AM, then late night show which is the biggest collection would be winded up before 9 PM, Theatre owners would have to take a call on this as police protection for 4 AM show is unlikely. This five show regulation is only for Leo first five days and not a regular measure as demanded by Producers Council. Leo scriptwriter Ratnakumar in an interview said Director Lokesh had witten the story and script a year ago. After Trisha came on board, then changes had to b made as the coming together of this pair would remind one of Ghilli and so in Kashmir portions, Vijay’s character is an extension of Ghilli character. He said many action scenes were created on the spot and not as written in the script. ee related post :https://southfilmy.blogspot.com/2023/10/tamananaah-says-south-films-crossing.html
