'Leo' starring Thalapathy Vijay is the biggest Tamil film of the year. The hype is humongous on par with Superstar Rajinikanth's 'Enthiran' and 'Kabali'. The Leo fever has taken over the industry and the movie is creating a history at the box office just with the pre-sales itself.

Leo is slated to hit the screens worldwide on October 19. Meanwhile, veteran actor-director Bharathiraja's new film 'Margazhi Thingal' was announced to clash with Leo. It was the directorial debut of Bharathiraja's son Manoj. Notably, the rural teen love story was the only Tamil film to clash with Leo. Now, the makers have pushed the release date due to the Leo storm.

Margazhi Thingal will now be released on October 27th. Director Suseenthiran's Vennila Productions officially announced the same with a new poster today. Leo is again a solo release in Tamil cinema. However, there is competition for Leo from the other film industries like Telugu, Kannada and Hindi.

Nandamuri Balakrishna's 'Bhagavanth Kesari', Ravi Teja's 'Tiger Nageswara Rao', Shiva Rajkumar's 'Ghost' and Tiger Shroff's 'Ganapath' are clashing with Leo at the box office. Leo is an action biggie directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj with the ensemble cast of Vijay, Trisha, Sanjay Dutt, Arjun and others. It has music by Anirudh.
