With rumours swirling and excitement building, the film is quickly becoming one of the most talked-about projects in Tamil cinema. Fans are eagerly awaiting every update, and the latest news surrounding the film has only added to the frenzy.
Plot and Trailer Launch
The Greatest Of All Time is set to be a fictional narrative that feels grounded in reality. Vijay will be seen playing the leader of a specialized team from the Special Anti-Terrorist Squad, a branch of RAW (Research and Analysis Wing). The plot centres around a past mission that resurfaces, presenting new threats that the squad must confront and neutralize. With Vijay leading the charge, the film promises intense action and a gripping storyline.
Adding to the excitement, the trailer for GOAT is scheduled to be launched today (August 17) at 5 PM. The 2-minute and 45-second video is expected to give fans their first glimpse of what to expect from the film.
