The much-anticipated political action drama Game Changer, starring Ram Charan in dual roles, is nearing the ₹100 crore mark at the domestic box office. Directed by S Shankar, the film has garnered attention across languages, being released in Tamil, Telugu, Hindi, and Kannada.
On its fourth day, which marked its first Monday, the film’s box office performance dipped slightly, earning ₹8.5 crore, according to Sacnilk. With this, the total domestic collection of Game Changer has reached an impressive ₹97 crore. The Telugu version recorded an overall occupancy of 20.58% on Monday.
Bollywood trade analyst Taran Adarsh shared insights on the Hindi version’s performance on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), revealing mixed results. “Despite positive feedback in the #Hindi circuits, #GameChanger hasn’t been able to unlock its true potential. The weekend numbers don’t reflect the substantial growth/jump typically expected from a big-budget, highly anticipated film,” he wrote.
Adarsh highlighted the Hindi version’s weekend figures:
- Friday: ₹8.64 crore
- Saturday: ₹8.43 crore
- Sunday: ₹9.52 crore
- Total: ₹26.59 crore
While the overall performance is respectable, he noted that the results fall short of expectations, given the high production costs.
A Star-Studded Cast and Grand Storyline
Game Changer showcases Ram Charan in a dual role as H. Ram Nandan and his father, Appanna. The movie also stars Kiara Advani as Deepika, Ram’s wife, marking her first collaboration with Ram Charan. The cast includes notable actors such as Anjali, Nassar, SJ Suryah, Brahmanandam, Vennela Kishore, and Murali Sharma in pivotal roles.
Production and Reception
Produced by Dil Raju under the banner of Sri Venkateswara Creations, Game Changer has drawn attention for its grand scale and gripping storyline. Despite its day four dip, the film continues to attract audiences, moving steadily towards the ₹100 crore milestone.
As the week progresses, the film’s performance in regional circuits and its cumulative box office numbers will determine whether it can overcome initial expectations and deliver a blockbuster success.
