Tamil Actor Vijay’s current film, The GOAT released today amidst great hype and expectations. The film, as expected has posted big opening in the Tamil Version worldwide. The opening is expected to be close to 100 crores worldwide which is just phenomenal. Vijay has showed his star power yet again with The GOAT.
Till now, only one film has grossed more than 100 crores worldwide in Kollywood. That was, Leo directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj. This film carried a sensational hype ahead of the release and likewise had earth shattering numbers on the opening day. The gross was close to 150 crores worldwide. Now, The GOAT stands only next to Leo by grossing nearly 100 crores. This is a record for any star in Kollywood for having two 100 crore openers. This is just truly remarkable.
However, The GOAT’s Telugu and other language versions’ collections look dull and may not post good numbers ahead. The film lacked craze and aggressive promotions ahead of the release in other languages making it completely unimpressive today. But, as said, Vijay has outperformed in his market. The film achieved a mixed talk from the audience and may post great numbers ahead as well in the weekend. Trade expects The GOAT to gross more than 300 crores worldwide.
