Vijay plays the dual role of father and son GOAT. To achieve the desired look, the makers used de-aging technology in the film. Expanding on that, director Venkat Prabhu talked about using this technique “for the first time” in an exclusive interview with NDTV. He said, “For the first time we have used anti-aging technique in a film. We came to know about this technique a few years back. I thought it would be good to use this technique in this film to give a new feel to the audience. Even Jawan had used this technique with young and old Shah Rukh (Khan) we are have achieved it to some extent.”
GOAT is produced by AGS Entertainment.
