Lokesh Kanakaraj visited a theatre in Kerala's Palakkad. However, the event did not go as planned as he suffered a minor injury in his leg. The director announced this by himself on social media and said that he could not attend the remaining venues due to the injuries.

"Due to a small injury in the crowd, I couldn't make it to the other two venues and the press meeting. I would certainly come back to meet you all in Kerala again soon. Till then continue enjoying #Leo with the same love 🤗," the director said on X sharing a picture.
