The Lokesh Cinematic Universe (LCU) is a shared universe of Indian Tamil-language action thriller films created by Lokesh Kanagaraj. The LCU follows an elaborate conflict between law enforcement officers and vigilantes in South India who are at war against a dangerously powerful drug cartel led by crime lord ‘Rolex’ . The LCU is currently comprised of two films: Kaithi (2019) and Vikram (2022) . Leo, an upcoming action thriller film directed by Lokesh Kanagraj and starring Vijay, Trisha, and Sanjay Dutt, is rumored to be part of the LCU, although this has not been confirmed by the filmmakers.

According to a YouTube video titled "LCU Explained: All 7 Movies of LCU (Released + Upcoming)," there are seven movies planned for the LCU, including Kaithi, Vikram, and Leo. However, the titles of the other four films have not been announced yet.
