Vijay, a major star in the South Indian film industry known for setting box office records, continues to captivate audiences globally, with a particularly strong following in the UK. The excitement surrounding his latest film, ‘GOAT’ (short for ‘The Greatest Of All Time’), is evident as UK bookings for the film have commenced a month ahead of its premiere. Notably, ‘GOAT’ will be released in IMAX theaters across the UK, marking the beginning of a significant box office campaign.
The film, a time travel fantasy drama, sees Vijay collaborating with director Venkat Prabhu. The post-production phase is nearing completion, and Vijay recently expressed his deep appreciation for the film by praising Prabhu and suggesting that their partnership might have continued if he had not announced his retirement from acting.
In ‘GOAT,’ Vijay plays dual roles, portraying both a father and his son. Advanced de-aging techniques were used to portray the younger version of his character, with the film’s third single, ‘Spark,’ composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja, recently unveiling Vijay’s de-aged look. The cast also includes notable actors such as Prashanth, Prabhu Deva, Sneha, Meenakshi Chaudhary, Laila, Jayaram, Mohan, and Vaibhav.
