Beast
Beast is a film co-produced by Vijay and Nelson. Prior to the release of the master film, it was officially announced that the duo would be producing a film in association with Sun Pictures. Known as the ‘King of Commerce’, Vijay’s unique alliance with Nelson, who makes films beyond commercial cinema, has left fans in awe. It is also worth noting that the official announcement of the film was released last December 2020.
Release
The master film was last released as a Pongal release in 2021. Following this, Vijay joined the shooting of the film Beast. The first film was shot in Georgia. But shooting was interrupted from time to time due to the corona environment. However, the Beast movie was released last April.
Review
The highly anticipated Beast movie received mixed reviews. The film failed to live up to the expectations of Hollywood fans. The general accusation was that there was no pressure on the story and screenplay and that the villains were not intimidated. Also, as the film was released with the second part of KGF starring Yash, many fans compared the two films to Beast. It is noteworthy that in this situation many more criticisms were placed on the salary of actor Vijay.
Collection
The general opinion is that Beast movie has no impact on the collections despite facing severe criticism. Because the film grossed several crores in advance. The film was a hit not only in Tamil Nadu but also in neighboring states and abroad. The first three countries also had huge box office receipts. Due to this, the film grossed over Rs 200 crore within a few days of its release. Despite the overall criticism, the film is said to be a box office success.
Record
In this case, the making video of the film aired on Sun TV last week. That broadcast received a TRP rating of over five points. Earlier, Vijay was interviewed on TV for the release of Beast. Vijay was interviewed almost ten years later. But that interview did not get the expected TRP rating. However the making video of the Beast movie that aired a few weeks ago has set a record in TRP. This news has given some comfort to Vijay fans. It is noteworthy that the fans commented that Vijay has once again proved himself as the TRP King.
