In a triumphant cinematic journey, Vijay-starrer ‘Leo’ released in theaters on October 19, captivating audiences with its action-packed narrative. The film quickly emerged as a box office sensation, grossing over Rs 625 crore and solidifying its place as the highest-grossing Tamil film of 2023 and Vijay’s career.
However, the dance anthem ‘Naa Ready’ in ‘Leo’ faced a minor setback during its theatrical release, leaving fans disappointed as certain lines were muted due to censorship. The altered version played in theaters sparked a desire for an uncensored experience, which has now been fulfilled with the release of the ‘Naa Ready’ video song on digital platforms.
The digital rendition not only features an uncensored version of the song but also includes extended scenes not seen in the theatrical release. Fans are responding enthusiastically, praising the vibrant energy of the song, and it is expected to garner a massive number of views on video streaming platforms.
Composed by Anirudh Ravichander, ‘Naa Ready’ holds a special place as it is sung by Vijay himself, with the rap version crafted and performed by Asal Kolaar. The infectious lyrics, penned by Vishnu Edavan, have resonated well with the audience, contributing to the song’s success.
Following the triumph of the lyrical video, ‘Naa Ready’ is poised to become a viral sensation on social media, with fans anticipated to recreate the catchy dance number on various platforms.
Directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, ‘Leo’ combines intense action sequences with emotional depth, earning accolades during its one-month theatrical run. Despite the initial plan for an OTT release on November 16, the film’s sustained success in theaters has led to a postponement of its digital premiere, reflecting the overwhelming demand from the audience. ‘Leo’ stands as a testament to Vijay’s enduring popularity and the film’s undeniable impact on Tamil cinema in 2023.
