Ram Charan starrer, 'Game Changer', directed by Shankar failed to impress at the box office despite its high expectations. The movie, released during the Sankranti festival, grossed low numbers worldwide and faced losses.
Music composer of the film, Thaman S recently shared his thoughts on why the film's songs didn't achieve the desired popularity. While speaking with The Hollywood Reporter he explained that none of the songs had a viral hook step, which is crucial for a song to go viral on social media platforms like Instagram Reels. Thaman shared that while he could create catchy melodies, the success of a song also depends on the choreographer's execution and the actor's performance.
Ram Charan unfollowed Thaman on social media, which seems to be following Thama's comments about the film's music.
For the unversed, 'Game Changer' received mixed reviews from critics and audiences alike. The film was criticized for its outdated storyline and predictable plot, which failed to resonate with viewers. Despite Ram Charan's strong performance, the overall response was below average, leading to a disappointing box office run.
