Thalapathy Vijay’s ‘GOAT’ Shatters Box Office Collection on Day 1
Chennai, India – “The Greatest of All Time” (GOAT), Thalapathy Vijay’s newest movie, had a huge opening day in India, making about ₹55 crore. Because of this amazing feat, “GOAT” is now the biggest Tamil opener in history.

ToggleThe film grossed over ₹30 crore in Tamil Nadu, with early estimates indicating a final sum of ₹32-35 crore
“GOAT” joins Vijay’s past successful openers, such as “Sarkar,” “Beast,” and “Leo,” in surpassing ₹30 crore on their opening day.
In addition to Tamil Nadu, “GOAT” did very well in Karnataka, where it made over ₹9 crore, and in Kerala, where it made ₹6 crore. But in the Telugu states, the movie didn’t do as well. It didn’t make as much money on its first day as Vijay’s other movies.
Despite its box office success, “GOAT” received mixed reviews from critics
While the film was praised for Vijay’s star power, it was critiqued for its lack of depth and strong character development.

Vijay is still the biggest star in Tamil Nadu, as shown by the success of “GOAT”
“GOAT” stands on Vijay’s star power alone, highlighting his title as the “Greatest of All Time.” This is in contrast to “Leo,” which gained from being part of the “Lokesh Cinematic Universe” (LCU).
With such a good start, “GOAT” should continue to do well at the box office over the next few weeks. Analysts in the movie business are hopeful that the movie will break even more records and cement its place in Tamil film history.
