Shankar's answer was succinct and direct. It's reasonable to assume that shankar won't be going into much more detail about Game Changer reviews just yet, but this was his succinct comment. Shankar disclosed in an interview that time restrictions forced him to omit a number of powerful passages. He also said that in order to make the film more manageable, important parts of the original footage—which lasted more than five hours—were cut. Fans of ram charan were taken aback by this news, and many criticized the Game Changer crew for their poor production preparation.
