Hyderabad: Game Changer is poised to be the first major release of 2025.
Despite some loss of buzz following director Shankar’s underwhelming performance with Indian 2, the film remains highly anticipated, especially among Ram Charan’s fans, who are enthusiastic about its potential.
However, there are concerns about the film's prospects in the Hindi market.
While Ram Charan’s previous film RRR was a sensational hit in Hindi-speaking regions, the lack of impact made by his co-star NTR in the same market raises doubts about Game Changer's performance there.
As a result, Ram Charan’s primary focus will be on Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, and the USA.
Promotions in the USA have already concluded, leaving Andhra Pradesh as a critical market where the hype needs to be amplified.
With Telangana CM Revanth Reddy reiterating that there will be no benefit shows or ticket price hikes, Ram Charan and his team are banking heavily on Andhra Pradesh.
With his uncle Pawan Kalyan playing a pivotal role in the state government, Ram Charan hopes to secure significant box office success in Andhra.
