LCU Gears Up Again! Lokesh Kanagaraj Drops Key Updates on ‘Benz’

In a recent interview, director-producer Lokesh Kanagaraj offered some fresh updates about his much-anticipated production Benz, a Tamil film that has already generated buzz for being a part of the Lokesh Cinematic Universe (LCU). With an impressive cast featuring Raghava Lawrence, Nivin Pauly, and Madhavan in the lead roles, the film also stars Samyuktha Menon as the female lead and Madonna Sebastian in a pivotal character, said to be an extension of her role from Leo.

Lokesh revealed that two major shooting schedules of Benz have already been completed. Interestingly, despite being the film’s producer, he admitted he hasn’t watched any of the footage yet. “I’m staying away from the monitor. I want to experience it fresh,” he said, adding that trusted editor Philomin Raj has been providing him regular progress updates.

With the production steadily moving forward, Lokesh confirmed that the shoot is expected to be wrapped up entirely in the next four months.

Produced under his banner G Squad, Benz is being closely watched by fans of the LCU as it promises to deepen the narrative connections between previous films. As speculation grows over character arcs and crossover links, Benz is shaping up to be one of the most exciting projects in Tamil cinema’s evolving universe.
