When it comes to massy cinema, Lokesh Kanagaraj is the name that comes to mind. With his cinematic sensibilities, he has entertained his audience for several years now. Giving tough competition to Hollywood`s Marvel Cinematic Universe, his own version of `Lokesh Cinematic Universe` is breaking the glass ceiling with might and power. LCU was born with the arrival of Karthi-headlined Kaithi.
Kaithi, released on October 25, 2019, marked the beginning of Lokesh Cinematic Universe. The film revolved around Dilli, an ex-convict. He hasn`t met his daughter and the only task on his mind post his jail tenure was to meet her for the first time. However, the wait was long as an Inspector sought his help to bust a drugs racket. The action thriller had several open endings, hinting at multiple sequels in the future. Before Kaithi, Lokesh directed Maanagaram which was also commercially successful. With Kaithi, he opened the gates to the LCU.
