No, it’s a compilation of a bundle of visual treats and nostalgia to the audience. And guess what, the first-ever collaboration of the director Venkat Prabhu with the ’greatest of all time’ actor.
Where should we start? there is a lot to talk about this anticipating creation. The introduction of de-aging technology, the nostalgic reunion of the 90s actors, and the political entry of Vijay. When it comes to GOAT, the first thing that excites the audience is the use of de-aging technology, which offers different dimensions (in terms of age) of the actor. So, let’s talk about it.
The introduction of ‘De-aging Technology’ in GOAT
The inspiration of the director from the famous Hollywood film, Gemini Man is the root cause of this tremendous introduction of de-aging technology. And it is surprising to learn that, the initial plan of the director is to bring out the characters of the father and son with two different actors. Do you have any guesses on his choice? It’s the Superstar Rajinikanth as Father and Dhanush to portray as a son. But thankfully, the revolution of technology brought a change.
GOAT reunites the stars of the evergreen 90s
The cast of the film brings nostalgia to the audience as it reunites the evergreen stars of the 90s with Prashanth, Prabhudheva, Sneha, Laila, and more on board. This reunion is expected to rely more on friendship, justifying the proverb “A friend in need”. The director intends to bring back the emotions of the ’90s with the actors, who are from the initial stage of Vijay’s career. It seems like, the film will justify the reunion as it is about the reunion of the seasoned spies.
GOAT offers tribute to the late legends of Kollywood
Talking more about GOAT, AI seems to be the star and the backbone of this whole creation. The makers had already surprised us by featuring the voice of late playback singer, Bhavatharini in its single Chinna Chinna Kangal. Moreover, it is also shocking to learn that the singer died on the day when the song was composed.
Moreover, the movie will also bring the late actor-politician Vijayakanth back to the screens. With the efficient use of AI, the team will be offering a tribute to the legendary actor.
The special cameo appearance in GOAT
Adding to the bundle of excitement, rumors over the one special cameo appearance of the film have been creating a buzz. Reports also suggest that the former Indian cricket captain MS Dhoni is making a cameo appearance in the film. Even though there is no official confirmation from the team, speculation has been making rounds on the internet.
The spark of Venkat Prabhu on making GOAT and its development
The spark of creating GOAT kicked off during COVID. The initial plan of the director is to cast Dhanush as the son and Rajinikanth as the father. But it takes a turn with the intro of AI and technology. Even though Ventak Prabhu and actor Vijay have been friends for years, it was the spark of GOAT, that reunited them together. Starting from day one, the improvisation of the story took place throughout the end of its productions. The director also mentioned that the freedom which offered to him in GOAT as a director is the backbone of this entire creation. The last few creations of the actor like Custody lack the director’s freedom and reflected as a confusing storyline.
So, dear readers let all wait a few more days to witness the greatest creation of the duo Thalapathy Vijay and Venkat Prabhu.
