Game Changer Set to Release on January 10, 2025
Shankar’s much-anticipated Telugu film, Game Changer, will hit theatres on January 10, 2025, for Sankranthi. Starring Ram Charan, Kiara Advani, and SJ Suryah, the film is a political action thriller. Ram Charan plays dual roles as a political leader, Appanna, and an IAS officer, Ram Nandan. Kiara Advani plays his love interest, while Anjali stars as Appanna’s wife.
The recently released trailer gives a glimpse into the intense storyline. After a tragedy strikes, Ram Nandan aims to fulfill his father’s dream of a corruption-free country. However, his journey faces challenges from Bobbili Mopidevi, a corrupt CM portrayed by SJ Suryah.
The film also features Vennela Kishore, Naveen Chandra, Samuthirakani, and Prakash Raj in significant roles. The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) awarded Game Changer a U/A certificate on January 2, 2025. The movie has a runtime of 2 hours and 45 minutes and will be released in multiple formats, including IMAX and Dolby Cinema.
The film is produced by Dil Raju and Sirish under the Sri Venkateswara Creations banner. Karthik Subbaraj wrote the story, while Thaman composed the music. Despite production delays, Game Changer is expected to be a major release.
Ram Charan took a significant pay cut to ease the film’s financial burden, accepting ₹90 crore in remuneration. The team also invested ₹75 crore in just four songs, underlining the film’s grand scale. This marks Ram Charan and Kiara Advani’s second collaboration after Vinaya Vidheya Rama. Fans are eagerly awaiting how this high-budget project performs at the box office.
