Leading Tamil actor Vijay's next big film, The Greatest of All Time, is currently being filmed in Russia ahead of its grand worldwide theatrical release later this year. The upcoming film being directed by blockbuster Tamil filmmaker Venkat Prabhu and featuring songs and a background score composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja is billed to be a high-octane action entertainer and will reportedly also include science-fiction elements. With a major chunk of production on The Greatest of All Time already wrapped up and filming said to be in the final stages, the film's team on Tuesday, April 9, surprised fans by dropping a behind-the-scenes (BTS) video of Vijay at the shooting spot, who is seen having fun riding a kickboard scooter.
'Thalapathy', as he is fondly addressed by fans and followers, Vijay dressed in a black blazer and trousers, can be seen smiling at the camera as he rides away on a scooter. The BTS video captioned: "How the day started today @actorvijay sir 🩵GreatestofAllTime" (sic) also shows the film's crew in the background looking at the actor scoot away swiftly. This latest video of Vijay from the shooting spot of The Greatest of All Time has come after he addressed fans at Kerala last month on a daily basis after filming for nearly a week in Thiruvanthapuram where a major leg of filming had been held.
There has been tremendous buzz surrounding The Greatest of All Time right from get-go as the film will showcase Vijay in dual roles reportedly as father and son. Having sported a clean-shaven look for a while now, the video now released has him sporting a beard and suggests that he is presumably filming portions involving the father character. The Greatest of All Time is being made on a massive scale and will see Vijay sharing screen space alongside a multi-star cast featuring the likes of Kolai fame Meenakshi Chaudhary playing the female lead, while Prashanth, Prabhu Deva, Jayaram, Ajmal Amir, Mohan, Laila, Sneha, Yogi Babu, VTV Ganesh, Premgi Amaren, Vaibhav, Aravind Akash, and Ajay Raaj, among others will be appearing in key roles.
