The audio launch event of actor Vijay’s much anticipated upcoming movie Leo has been cancelled due to safety reasons and overflowing pass requests, the film crew has stated.

The event was scheduled to take place on September 30 (Saturday), at the Nehru Indoor Stadium in Chennai.

Two days after Seven Screen Studio, the producer of Leo, took to social media to announce the cancellation of the event, a letter reportedly sent by the producer to the city police expressing their inability to host the event was shared widely on social media on Thursday.

In the letter, the Seven Screen Studio wrote “We are writing this letter to inform you that Leo movie audio launch event planned to happen on September 30 in Nehru Indoor Stadium stands cancelled due to overflowing passes request which we cannot accommodate and safety constraints.”

Thanking the police department for its cooperation and support, the production team also expressed regret for the inconvenience caused, as the crew had already sought permission and the police had started making plans to provide the required bandobast for the mega event.
