The GOAT Falls Short of Expectations, Concludes Theatrical Run at ₹455 Crore

Released on September 5, the film had initially aimed for the ₹500 crore club but has now fallen short of this target. It is also set to miss the box office collection of Ponniyin Selvan 1.

Directed by Venkat Prabhu, the film opened to mixed reviews but generated significant fan enthusiasm, affirming Vijay's superstar status. Despite a strong soundtrack and compelling content, the film's overall performance did not meet expectations.

After 22 days in theaters, The GOAT has earned ₹252.23 crore nett in India, amounting to ₹297.63 crore gross after taxes. Internationally, it has grossed ₹158 crore, bringing the worldwide total to ₹455.63 crore gross.

In India, daily box office collections have dwindled to around ₹1 crore, indicating a likely end to its run within days. This weekend may see a final boost in earnings, but it will soon drop below the ₹1 crore mark. With this steady decline, The GOAT is expected to finish as the 5th highest-grossing film in Kollywood, missing the ₹482.70 crore gross of Ponniyin Selvan 1.
