The GOAT plot

As per many social media handles, the plot of The GOAT has been circulated. "The shadows of an unknown past resurface, destabilizing a special anti-terrorist squad and shaking their trust as buried secrets come to light," reads the synopsis.

In The GOAT, Vijay is expected to make dual appearance in his old and young self. The makers have gone for de-ageing look to make Vijay look younger. The thriller is also said to be inspired by the 2004 Moscow Metro bombing after a suicide bomber detonated and took the lives of many. The film’s runtime is expected to be two hours and 30 minutes. However, an official announcement has not yet been made yet.

The GOAT is Vijay’s 68th outing as lead actor and is directed by filmmaker Venkat Prabhu in his first collaboration with the actor.
