The film is slated for release on September 5 and it has generated a lot of buzz for its premiere shows with tickets selling out fast.

The Greatest of All Time is a Tamil film and USA is technically a big market for Telugu films, given that the language has become the 11th most spoken language in the country. Despite this, Vijay’s film is getting a lot of positive traction suggesting the appeal of Vijay even in Telugu centric areas.

The Greatest of All Time is going to be the second last time fans will be able to see Vijay on the big screen as the superstar gears up to enter politics. He even launched his political party some time back. Vijay’s last film was Lokesh Kanagaraj ’s Leo: Bloody Sweet , which held the record of highest day one collection of Rs 140 crore.
