MS Dhoni

Earlier, there were several speculations about Indian cricket star MS Dhoni making a cameo appearance in The GOAT. It has now been confirmed, as Chennai Super Kings star cricketer is seen making a short but significant appearance towards the climax of the film. Although Dhoni does not have any dialogues, the glimpse of him looking at Vijay’s character as he steps inside the stadium for one of his matches in the Indian Premier League (IPL) is shown in the film. 

Trisha Krishnan

Among other cameo rumors, Trisha Krishnan indeed makes a dance appearance alongside Thalapathy Vijay in the song titled 'Matta.' Vijay and Trisha, who are one of the most beloved on-screen couples in Kollywood, delighted the fans with their energetic performance.

The Tamil actor’s appearance in The GOAT has taken the internet by storm. He has a brief stint in the film, appearing in a washroom sequence where he shares screen space with Thalapathy Vijay himself. Fans got excited when Vijay tasks him with looking after the antagonist, Mic Mohan, while he tries to locate a bomb planted in the stadium. While asking him to ensure Mic Mohan doesn’t escape, Vijay hands him a gun and tells him, "Now the lives of the 1000 people in the stadium lie in your hands." Fans went wild over the line, believing that the dialogue hints at Thalapathy Vijay passing on his crown as the superstar of Kollywood to rising star Sivakarthikeyan.
