Bengaluru Dominates Chennai For GOAT Craze

The highly anticipated film "The Greatest Of All Time" (GOAT) starring Thalapathy Vijay, Prabhu Deva, Prashanth, and Sneha is set to release globally today, generating excitement among fans. However, Bengaluru is witnessing sky-high ticket prices and an overwhelming number of screenings compared to Chennai, where ticket prices remain significantly lower. With over 1,000 screenings scheduled in Bengaluru, including more than 20 showings at multiplexes, and ticket prices reaching up to ₹2,000, fans are expressing frustration over the disparity in pricing.

In contrast, Chennai has secured approximately 750 screenings, with the earliest shows commencing only after 9 a.m., and a maximum ticket price of around ₹190. The surge in ticket prices in Bengaluru has led to accusations of price gouging, despite most screenings being fully booked. The main reason behind this surge is Bengaluru is screening GOAT as early as possible from 4'O clock. Directed by Venkatesh Prabhu, "GOAT" is Vijay's 68th project, featuring a high-budget production estimated between ₹300 Crore, and action-packed sequences.

The film boasts an impressive cast, including Vijay in dual roles, Prabhu Deva, Prashanth, Ajmal Azeez, Mohan, Jayaram, Sneha, Laila, Meenakshi Chaudhary, Vaibhav, Yogi Babu, Parvati Nair, and Ajay Raj. With music composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja, "GOAT" is expected to be a cinematic spectacle. As the film makes its debut, the exceptional ticket sales and inflated prices in Bengaluru reflect the massive fan following and anticipated success of Vijay's latest venture.

The disparity in ticket prices between Bengaluru and Chennai has sparked debate, with fans calling for fair pricing. Nevertheless, the excitement surrounding "GOAT" is palpable, with fans eager to witness Vijay's latest cinematic endeavor. With its high-octane action sequences and impressive cast, "GOAT" is poised to be a blockbuster hit, cementing Vijay's status as a cinematic icon.
