Following the phenomenal success of RRR, the highly anticipated next projects of its lead actors, NTR and Ram Charan, have been closely watched by fans and critics alike. NTR’s recent release, Devara, has set a new benchmark by grossing approximately ₹300 crore in its opening weekend, placing immense pressure on Ram Charan’s upcoming film, Game Changer.
Dil Raju, the film’s producer, recently confirmed that Game Changer is slated for a December release. The film, directed by Shankar, is expected to be a lavish production with a large budget, aiming to attract a wide audience. However, Ram Charan faces challenges as he collaborates with a director, Shankar, whose recent film Bharateeyudu 2 underperformed. Additionally, the composer, Thaman, has been tasked with creating a compelling audio album, given his mixed track record in recent times.
Fans have already begun comparing the box office prospects of Devara and Game Changer, highlighting the intense anticipation surrounding Ram Charan’s performance. The Mega Hero’s ability to draw audiences post-RRR will be put to the test, as he aims to escape the so-called “Rajamouli Curse” that has plagued several actors who have achieved significant success under the director’s guidance.
If Game Changer can match or surpass the opening weekend collections of Devara, it would not only solidify Ram Charan’s position as a leading actor but also demonstrate his ability to attract audiences independently. Previously, Charan faced challenges following the success of Magadheera, with a series of box office setbacks. With the release date approaching in two months, fans are eagerly anticipating what could be a fierce box office battle between the two highly anticipated films.
