Malayalam actor Mathew Thomas made his Tamil film debut with Leo, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj. He played the son of Vijay and Trisha in the action film. In a recent promotional interview for his latest Malayalam movie, Nellikkampoyil Night Riders, Mathew spoke about his interactions with Trisha and Vijay on the sets of Leo.

The actor said, “When I first met Trisha ma’am on the set of Leo , she told me she wasn’t keen on having a son my age in the movie.”

Sharing his witty response to Trisha’s honest concern, Mathew added, “I don’t like playing a son either. I actually thought this was a stepson role!”

Leo marked the first time Trisha has portrayed a mother to a late teenager.
