Tamil Filmmaker Karthik Subbaraj Accuses Director Shankar of Ruining Game Changer
\
Tamil filmmaker Karthik Subbaraj has accused director Shankar of ruining his film Game Changer, which turned out to be a massive failure both critically and commercially.
Before the film’s release, Karthik had expressed pride about being associated with a Shankar directorial. However, after the film’s release and the backlash it received, his tone has changed noticeably. In his latest interview promoting his own film Retro, Karthik said that he initially pitched a one-line story about a grounded IAS officer to Shankar sir.
However, the story and screenplay were later changed, involving many writers. Karthik implies that Shankar ruined the film entirely to suit his own whims and fancies. The film was made on a staggering budget of 450 crores and suffered massive losses, facing outright rejection from audiences right from its premiere on Sankranti.
Made on a 50th landmark film for producer Dil Raju, Game Changer never really knew what it wanted to be. Both Shankar and Karthik Subbaraj ended up as casualties of the epic disaster.
