Game Changer starring Ram Charan in the lead role is now playing in theatres. The big-ticket entertainer produced by Dil Raju received mixed to negative reviews from critics and is underperforming big time at the box office. The movie is panned for its outdated presentation and routine storyline.
In a recent interview Shankar was asked if he had watched any YouTube or online reviews for Game Changer. The anchor told Shankar that online reviews are influencing people lately. Shankar replied, “No, I haven’t watched any reviews. But I heard the movie got good reviews.”
Shankar is now being criticised heavily by netizens for his statement. Audiences are opining that Shankar should go through the online reviews to understand where he is lacking so that he can come up with better films in the future. Game Changer’s budget is over Rs. 400 crores as stated by SJ Suryah but according to trade pundits the made only Rs. 160 crores gross till now.
Comparatively the Hindi version had a decent first weekend but even this version crashed on the first Monday earning only Rs. 2.4 crores nett. The movie will be earning decent revenues today and tomorrow due to Sankranthi holiday season but going forward things are looking bleak for this political action drama.
