As per a tweet by trade analyst Nishit Shaw, Leo, with collections of £1.36 million, is now the 4th highest-grossing Indian film in the UK in 2023. The top spot is conquered by Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan, with earnings of £4.38 million, followed by Jawan, which raked in £3.08 million. Third on the list is Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt’s Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani, which garnered £2.37 million.
Leo has left behind as many as six films with its humungous collections within the first six days.
