Thalapathy Vijay's The Greatest Of All Time is going to be a 'smash hit', promises Premji, raises anticipation

As if the hype surrounding Thalapathy Vijay's upcoming movie The Greatest Of All Time (GOAT) was not enough, actor-composer Premji added to it by expressing a deep sense of awe over how the movie is turning out.

Premji claimed that the movie is going to be a massive treat for fans as they will get to see Vijay in a never-seen-before action avatar. He noted that the highlight of the movie is Vijay's double acting, suggesting that he was struggling to find the right words to explain that experience.

"You guys wait and see. Two Thalapathys (in GOAT) are going to be mind-blowing. I have no words to describe it. You must see it to believe it. I am waiting," Premji said at an event, leaving fans with a heightened sense of excitement.

"The film is on a different level. We can't say much about it because AGS will sue us. But, we are coming out this year with a smash hit," he added.

The Greatest Of All Time is bankrolled by AGS Entertainment and is written and directed by Venkat Prabhu. The film, which marks Venkat's first-time collaboration with Vijay, is believed to be a sci-fi thriller.

Earlier speculations were rife that the movie was a remake of the Hollywood blockbuster Gemini Man. The first-look poster revealing Vijay's double role, one young and one slightly old, further added credence to the claims.

However, recently Venkat Prabhu put an end to the speculations by rubbing out the remake rumors. "This film is not a remake but a fresh, original script," confirmed Venkat, while refraining from further elaborating about Vijay's double role.

Venkat also revealed that the movie will boast extensive special effects, and the post-production work is ongoing at several studios across the world. He revealed that until they have a clear idea of when the CGI work will be completed, the producers can't announce the release date.
