Thalapathy Vijay’s much-anticipated film, The GOAT, directed by Venkat Prabhu, has finally made its grand debut in theatres. The espionage action thriller is already making waves internationally, especially in North America, where it’s eyeing a massive one-million-dollar collection from the premiere shows. Early screenings have also kicked off in major cities like Hyderabad, Kerala, and Bangalore, with enthusiastic fans flocking to the cinemas.
In a recent tweet, Venkat Prabhu fueled excitement, saying:
“You guys don’t need to watch any movie before coming for The Greatest Of All Time. Just come and have fun!! It’s all yours!!! Let’s celebrate our #Thalapathy in theatres!! The #GOAT is here!!! Another three hours to go, world!!”
The tweet has sparked discussions, with many speculating whether Venkat Prabhu was subtly referencing Lokesh Kanagaraj. During the release of Vikram, Lokesh had urged fans to watch his earlier film Kaithi (Khaidi) to fully immerse themselves in the Lokesh Cinematic Universe (LCU). Venkat’s message, suggesting fans can dive into The GOAT without any prior preparation, has stirred up debates among fans and critics alike.
With this brewing conversation, the big question is whether Venkat Prabhu’s The GOAT will surpass the box office success of Leo, another major Thalapathy Vijay film directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj.
Stay tuned as the The GOAT looks set to dominate the box office!
