Thalapathy Vijay’s Beast is the most recent to join the frenzy. It is one of the most awaited films and is constantly hitting new records every other day. Now, the latest buzz suggests that the movie is set to have a grand premiere on a huge number of screens worldwide.
Beast will reportedly be released on 600 to 700 screens in the northern region, with UFO Moviez handling distribution in the Hindi belt. Going by the current trends, Beast will be released in around 6500 theatres globally.

According to reports, the Nelson Dilipkumar-directed film will be shown in over 800 theatres in its native market of Tamil Nadu, while K.G.F. 2, being the distributors’ second priority, has only received 250 screens.
However, the Thalapathy-starrer may encounter heavy competition in the North due to clashes with K.G.F 2 and Jersey. The creators haven’t pushed the film in Hindi that much other than a few promo videos and trailers.
Meanwhile, the Beast frenzy is visible not only among fans but also among theatre owners. The bookings were just opened in the domestic market, and the reaction has been spectacular; half of the shows were nearly filled within 24 hours of the bookings opening. As per a report by Sacnilk.com, of the 175 shows in Chennai 125 are almost full.
Along with several theatres in Coimbatore, Chennai’s Rohini Silver Screen’s executive director, too, dubbed Beast as the highest pre-booked movie of the year.
