As a seasoned movie-goer and ardent fan of Thalapathy Vijay, I must say I find the situation surrounding the release of his highly anticipated film “The Greatest of All Time” (GOAT) rather peculiar. The fact that the Hindi version of this cinematic marvel will not be shown at major National cinema chains in North India due to a policy that mandates an 8-week gap between theatrical release and OTT premiere is certainly disheartening, especially for those who are not fluent in South Indian languages.
One of the most eagerly anticipated movies of 2024, “The Greatest of All Time,” starring Thalapathy Vijay, is causing quite a stir. This film, helmed by Venkat Prabhu, has been a hot topic among both fans and critics. Unfortunately, it’s been announced that the Hindi version of this movie won’t be screened at major cinemas in North India
These notable cinema chains such as PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis are involved. According to film industry expert Taran Adarsh, this move originates from a decades-old policy they’ve followed, which impacts the screening of Hindi movies in their cinemas
The rule requires that any newly released Hindi movies wait for eight weeks after their cinema debut before appearing on streaming services like Over-The-Top platforms. This is to give the films ample time in cinemas before they can be streamed digitally. Consequently, theaters showing the Hindi version of GOAT will not have screenings due to this policy
If you’re wondering why you can’t find Hindi movies on platforms like BookMyShow, it’s because they follow a specific policy. National cinema chains stick to this policy to ensure a well-organized release plan that accommodates both traditional theater and digital distribution
Regardless of the obstacle, there’s positive news for fans in South India: The non-Hindi versions of “GOAT” are set to premiere in the South Indian markets at PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis cinemas

Tomorrow, on September 5, Thalapathy Vijay’s much-anticipated movie is set to hit theaters. Alongside Vijay, the film boasts key performances by Meenakshi Chaudhary, Prabhu Deva, and several other talented actors
In the movie, you’ll find actor Vijay portraying two characters: one as a father and another as his son. The film GOAT is said to be inspired by the 2004 Moscow Metro Bombing, where Vijay will take on the role of Gandhi, a member of a special anti-terrorism unit known as SATS. Recently, this South Indian production made headlines for being the first of its kind to be screened in Leicester Square, London
