Court turns down Leo makers' plea

The Madras High Court on Tuesday refrained from passing a verdict on an appeal from the producers for 4 am screenings of Thalapathy Vijay’s much-anticipated movie Leo on October 19. Justice Anitha Sumanth refrained from passing orders in the matter following vehement opposition by Advocate General R. Shanmugasundaram and state Public prosecutor Mohammed Ali Jinnah. The court, however, directed the producers to approach the state government with their request regarding 7 am shows from October 19-24.
