Thalapathy Vijay's 'Leo' directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj is one among the most talked about upcoming films in India. There is already a stellar starcast on board and each passing day there are speculations about top heroes such as Ram Charan Teja and Dhanush doing special cameos.

However Rathnakumar one of the writers of the film has given the hot official update that there are 5 directors as part of the cast namely Arjun, Mysskin, Gautham Menon, Anurag Kashyap and Mansoor Alikhan. Counting in himself and Dheeraj Vaidy who is also part of the writing team then there are a total of 7 directors who are part of the film. The 'Aadai' maker sharing a pic of the filmmakers with Thalapathy Vijay hinted that there are still more to come.
