In an interview with Cine Ulagam on YouTube, venkat prabhu disclosed how he cast trisha in "GOAT." At the film's success meeting, Trisha—who reunited with Vijay in Leo after a 17-year break—voiced her concerns about the lack of a song similar to Appadi Podu in lokesh Kanagaraj's direction. However, venkat prabhu listened to her carefully and asked the actress to perform for "Matta."
After accepting the offer, the stunning actress allegedly demanded a payment of Rs 1 crore for the exclusive performance in which she would shake legs with Vijay for the song "Matta." Now that Vijay and Trisha's dance performance is being well-praised in theaters, venkat prabhu is content. It's important to note that the yuvan shankar raja song has become the most remembered by fans, and the "Matta" song has a reproduction of Vijay and Trisha's dancing moves from "Appadi Podu" in "Ghilli."
