Shankar, the maverick director renowned for his groundbreaking work in Indian cinema, has recently piqued the interest of his fans with the announcement of his upcoming project Game Changer. Once considered one of the most celebrated filmmakers in the industry, Shankar’s work has seen fluctuations in its reception in recent years. However, with Game Changer, expectations are at an all-time high. On this occasion, the director shared insights into his forthcoming film and also spoke about the highly anticipated Indian 3, offering a glimpse into his creative process and his collaboration with Ram Charan.

According to Shankar, Ram Charan’s decision to be a part of Game Changer was made well before the release of the highly successful RRR. Dil Raju, the prominent producer, was instrumental in suggesting Charan for the role, a move that Shankar wholeheartedly agreed with. The director explained that his stories often revolve around universal themes that transcend the individual characteristics of any particular hero. This, according to him, makes the story adaptable to a wide range of protagonists, making it ideal for a big star like Ram Charan. Shankar emphasized that Charan’s natural charisma and acting abilities made him the perfect fit for the role in Game Changer.

Shankar spoke highly of Ram Charan’s acting skills, praising his ability to deliver deep, nuanced performances. He particularly highlighted Charan’s strong screen presence, which makes him versatile across a variety of scenes, be it action sequences, sentimental moments, or intense dialogues. According to Shankar, Charan’s portrayal of his character as an officer is something audiences will not forget, noting that the actor’s transformation, including a new hairstyle, brings a fresh appeal to the role. “Charan looks very smart as an officer,” Shankar remarked, adding that his performance, especially in emotional scenes, is powerful and believable. The director also mentioned that Charan shines in the action, songs, and fight sequences, bringing his unique touch to each.

Shankar also addressed the ongoing speculation surrounding the release of Indian 3, the sequel to his critically acclaimed Indian 2. The director firmly confirmed that Indian 3 will indeed happen, dispelling rumors about a possible OTT release. He clarified that the film will be exclusively released in theaters, much to the delight of fans who are eager to witness the continuation of this iconic franchise on the big screen. Furthermore, Shankar expressed his surprise at the negative reception Indian 2 received, admitting that he did not anticipate the backlash it garnered. However, he assured fans that the upcoming Indian 3 will exceed expectations and will be a theatrical experience that will capture the attention of moviegoers worldwide.

One of the most intriguing aspects of Shankar’s recent statements is the hint he dropped about future collaborations. Fans who have been speculating about what a partnership between Shankar and Ram Charan would look like can expect some surprises. Shankar hinted that the synergy between the two will result in something unique, offering a fresh experience for the audience. As for Game Changer, the film, set for release on January 10, 2024, marks an exciting collaboration between Ram Charan, actress Kiara Advani, the director Shankar, and producer Dil Raju. With the hype surrounding this star-studded team-up, Game Changer is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated films in recent times.
