By: Tupaki Desk | 22 Oct 2023 1:09 AM GMTBefore Leo's release, there were high hopes that it would be a part of the LCU. However, after it came out, it was confirmed to be in the LCU, but Lokesh's fans weren't thrilled, as Leo felt like a forced addition.
Leo, the film, received a lot of negative feedback, especially for its flashback. People were puzzled by Lokesh Kanagaraj's choice for such a bizarre plot point. However, the cinematographer of Leo, Manoj Paramahansa, has revealed a surprising twist in a recent interview. He mentioned, "Flashbacks can be misleading. Lokesh wanted to show just a brief portion of it, and when a stranger like Mansoor talks about it, it might be untrue also" While some fans think this theory could be valid, others find it a weak excuse from the film's team.
Critics argue that the audience isn't gullible, and if the filmmakers intended to have a false flashback, they should have clarified it in the end with a voiceover. Cinema is a visual medium, and people can't read the writer's or cameraman's thoughts. Many online users suggest that the filmmakers should acknowledge that the flashback isn't well-executed instead of coming up with such weak explanations.
