Is Game Changer Over-edited?

0

Is Game Changer over-edited? This is the question that is bothering the movie lovers and audiences. It is widely known that Shankar and Ram Charan’s Political Action Drama, Game Changer was released in theaters worldwide this Friday. Normally Shankar’s films have a runtime of 3 hours, and a few films have even more length.

Especially his political subjects always have very lengthy runtimes, but somehow, Shankar continuously mentioned before the release of Game Changer that today’s audiences want racy screenplay without a boring moment and announced that the film will have a crispy runtime of 165 Minutes.

However, after seeing the film everyone felt like there were many scenes that were not connected well and ended abruptly. Even some scenes were chopped off and they did not have any link to the following scenes. The film has a lot of character artists and Ram Charan’s backstory, Flashback portions, and crucial emotional scenes which were not explored to the fullest extent. That is why people opine that Game Changer was over-edited.

It is clear that Shankar seems to have made with wrong judgment and there was a lot of shooting footage that was trimmed during the final cut. So, this misjudgment in the editing is also one of the main reasons for Game Changer’s below-par word of mouth and reviews as audiences did not connect to the film’s story.

Sankranthiki Vasthunnam is trending strongly in bookings. The family entertainer starring Venkatesh and directed by Anil Ravipudi became successful in creating a good buzz around it. Even with two days left for the film’s release and facing competition with films like Game Changer, and Daaku Maharaaj, the advance bookings for Sankranthiki Vasthunam are excellent on Book My Show with around 10K tickets per hour.

In Hyderabad, the bookings gross has already crossed 1.5 Cr. The film registered 50% occupancy as of now and is set for a massive opening at the box office. In Andhra Pradesh also, the movie is already seeing fast-filling and sold-out shows. If the film opens with positive word of mouth, then definitely there will be huge demand for the tickets. Sankranthiki Vasthunnam is trending strongly in bookings.

Anil Ravipudi – Venkatesh combo is doing big magic on audiences and as said above, if the film gets a positive response, then certainly, the success of their previous film, F2 will repeat

Targeted negative campaign on Game Changer?

0

Game Changer starring Ram Charan released on January 10th worldwide. The film received mixed word of mouth and talk. But the film was however not a bad one like Indian 2 and a few disasters in recent times. But on social media, Game Changer has seen great trolling and a negative campaign which raises doubts over a targeted campaign in place.

Game Changer has its highs and lows with flashback portions and pre-interval scenes getting good response. Few scenes, however, failed to impress the audience which ultimately attracted a below-average response. But, the reviews and talk have been spread by many that the film was unbearable to watch. This is greatly impacting the film’s collections which have already dropped hugely on Day 2.

The team of Game Changer must do some promotions by giving interviews on the festival days to boost the collections with family audiences. But it looks like the team is silent and there are also no promos of these interviews which is shocking. It needs to be seen if the film comes out of this negativity and becomes a hit. But the indications are not good.

Case filed on Venkatesh and Suresh Babu

0

A case has been filed on Tollywood Actor Venkatesh and his brother Producer Suresh Babu today. A person named Nandakumar approached the Nampally Court alleging that the Tollywood personalities had allegedly trespassed and grabbed his property located at Jubilee Hills.

The case has been filed under 448, 452, 458 r/w 120 B of IPC. The police will also be investigating the case following the court’s order. This is really very interesting for Tollywood celebrities to face legal cases in recent times. Nagarjuna too faced the same situation with the Telangana Government demolishing his N Convention center followed by Allu Arjun who was even jailed for a stampede incident during his Pushpa 2 premiere.

Now, it’s the turn of the Daggubati brothers to face the case. It needs to be seen how the duo would approach this scenario. On the other hand, the Actor’s Sankrantiki Vasthunam is slated for release on 14th January worldwide.

Vijay Fans Highly Disappointed

0

Thalapathy Vijay’s 69th film has created huge buzz as it is the final movie by Vijay .Fans are hoping for a cinematic masterpiece that sets a benchmark in Indian cinema. However, persistent rumors suggesting that the movie is a remake of Nandamuri Balakrishna’s ‘Bhagavanth Kesari’ have created waves of uncertainty among Vijay’s ardent supporters.


Social media has been abuzz with debates, with fans staunchly defending the originality of ‘Thalapathy 69’. Many argued that the film is not a direct remake but may have been inspired by the core essence of ‘Bhagavanth Kesari’. The film’s team, however, has remained tight-lipped, neither confirming nor denying these speculations.


The situation took a dramatic turn during a recent Sankranti event when actor-producer VT Ganesh reportedly revealed that ‘Thalapathy 69’ is indeed a remake. He also disclosed that Vijay had watched ‘Bhagavanth Kesari’ five times and was so impressed by the film that he even approached Anil Ravipudi to direct his version. This unexpected revelation has left fans disheartened, as they hoped for a fresh and unique storyline to cap off Vijay’s career.


The timing and manner of this announcement have also raised eyebrows, with many suggesting it could affect the morale of the ‘Thalapathy 69’ team. While the official stance remains unclear, Vijay fans are now grappling with mixed emotions as they await further updates on this highly anticipated project.
