Thalapathy Vijay’s ‘GOAT’ to Release in IMAX; UK Bookings Open
Upcoming Film and Political Aspirations, Thalapathy Vijay is now getting ready for a humungous career transition to politics, and will retreat from acting once he completes two films in hand at the moment. The other being the highly-anticipated The Greatest of All Time, or GOAT, directed by Prabhu Venkat. With a September 5 release date, this film has been much in the noise, especially after the recent booking news that came in from the United Kingdom.
Impressive Ticket Sales and IMAX Screenings
Advance bookings for GOAT have finally opened in the UK, and the response is overwhelming. Despite minimal publicity, the film has sold over 1,000 tickets, earning a whopping £8,000, or about ₹85 lakh on the first day of sales. Quite an achievement for a Tamil film, especially when one considers that all IMAX screens pre-booked for release.
The film is confirmed to release in the UK in more theatres than any other Tamil film. Current bookings show 105 shows across 75 locations. More screens and locations will definitely be added as the release date inches closer because the demand among fans to witness Vijay on the big screen will surely surge.
UK: Tamil Cinema’s Big Territory
Of late, the United Kingdom has grown to be one of the most imperative markets for Tamil cinema and, all the more so, for films that star Thalapathy Vijay. Much similar to how North America is treated as a keen market for Telugu and Hindi films, the UK is getting fast established as a stronghold for Tamil cinema aficionados. The fan following that Vijay has in that region just goes on to prove the popularity that he currently enjoys and the reach of Tamil films overseas.
With GOAT, the fans are joining the race and waiting for its release; the opening tickets hint that the following and the anticipation for Vijay’s performance seem pretty strong. This advance booking besides showing the star popularity also reflects growing interest in Tamil cinema across international audiences.
Conclusion: Anticipation for ‘GOAT’
With GOAT all set to splodge its way in India and overseas markets, Thalapathy Vijay has further sealed his place as the face of Indian cinema. As he gears up to don the political mantle, it’s time for his fans to pray for a grand farewell in his acting career. Advance ticket sales have been very impressive, including IMAX bookings, which have become a positive omen for the movie’s success. So, from September 5, GOAT sensation will brew high to turn out to be one of the most unforgettable cinematic experiences for Vijay and his fans worldwide.
