Legend Saravanan's latest film Leader was released in theatres on April 3 to positive reviews from audiences and critics. While it has been almost a month since the film hit the big screens, the Durai Senthilkumar directorial isn't looking at making its OTT premiere anytime soon.

The director recently shared a poster of the latest action drama and captioned it, "Successful 4th week for Leader." Reports circulating on the internet indicate that the film's theatrical run has been extended to capitalise on the box office revenue.

While it was earlier speculated that Leader would hit OTT platform Prime Video on May 1, no official announcement regarding the same has been made. It looks like the film will continue running in theatres for a week or two before making its OTT premiere. So, audiences can expect Leader to release on the platform by mid-May.

Leader revolves around an innocent father and his daughter whose lives are upended after a powerful gangster enters their lives.

The cast for the film includes Sham, Andrea, Santhosh Prathap, Payal Rajput, Lal, Prabaharan, Amirtha Aiyer, VTV Ganesh, Iyal, Aishwarya, Mariam George, Nisha, Adithya Kathir.

Ghibran has composed music for the film, with lyrics written by Kabilan, Viveka, Mohan Rajan. The rest of the crew includes Venkatesh S as the director of photography, Pradeep E Ragav as the editor, G Durairaj as the art director, and Mahesh Mathew as the stunt co-ordinator.
