Game Changer has to be one of the most important films in Ram Charan and Shankar’s long career. The movie is not important because it did something remarkably good, but because it did something canonically embarrassing. The movie was inspired by real events and it marks the debut of Shankar in the Telugu film industry.
Anyway, the film was just too bad. It received widespread criticism for its poor story and execution. The only community that was happy after this movie was the memers community. They got a lot of materials to make fun of. As a result, the movie totally tanked at the box office.
Now the film is available on OTT and the makers have pulled a sly trick to lessen the embarrassment. There was this ridiculous scene where Ram Charan was laughing maniacally for a long period. The scene was filmed really really badly and coming to OTT would have only amplified the embarrassment that came along.
So, the makers decided to trim the entire scene. The version which is currently streaming on OTT is shorter than the one which the theatre going audience had to bear.
Well, the time is gone and Shankar should have taken better care while he was directing the film.
