The koels never stop singing.
The tears don't flow in shame,
The peacocks never stop dancing.

About Vijay starrer 'The Greatest Of All Time'


The film marks Vijay's second-last film after he announced his foray into politics. The film is slated to hit theatres on September 5 on the occasion of Ganesh Chaturthi. The film's posters hint at Vijay essaying dual roles, with the utilization of de-aging technology for one character. Reportedly, the actor can also be seen sporting a clean-shaven look for his portrayal. While speculation swirls around the film possibly drawing inspiration from Hollywood's 'Looper', the makers are yet to address the claims.


Joining Vijay in the cast are Meenakshi Chaudhary, Mohan, Jayaram, Sneha, Laila, Vaibhav, Premgi Amaren, and Yugendran Vasudevan. While the storyline remains tightly guarded, glimpses from posters reveal Vijay, Prabhudeva, Prashanth, and Ajmal adorned in military attire, hinting at intriguing plotlines. With much of the filming already concluded, 'The GOAT' is set to release in Tamil, Telugu, Hindi, and other languages.
