With expectations high for the 'Naa Ready' track to become yet another chart-topping hit, Lokesh Kanagaraj surprised fans on Wednesday, June 21, with the announcement of the film's first look. The blockbuster filmmaker took to Twitter to reveal that the much-awaited Leo first look will be out at 12 a.m. as the first big birthday treat for Vijay's fans. He wrote, "#LeoFirstLook at 12AM for @actorvijay Anna's Birthday #Leo 🔥🧊 (sic)," with the fire and ice cube emojis raising speculations about whether it's a reference to his alter ego as mentioned in the 'Naa Ready' song announcement poster unveiled earlier this week.
