Game Changer Box Office Collection Day 3: Did Ram Charan’s Political Drama Cross ₹100 Crore in Its Opening Weekend?

Ram Charan's much-anticipated political drama, Game Changer, hit theaters on January 10, generating significant buzz. Despite a remarkable opening day collection of ₹51 crore, the film struggled to maintain momentum over the weekend, witnessing substantial drops in earnings.

Opening Weekend Performance

The film, which runs for 2 hours and 44 minutes and stars Kiara Advani in a pivotal role, garnered ₹108.8 crore globally by the end of its third day, according to industry tracker Sacnilk. This allowed Game Changer to cross the coveted ₹100 crore milestone.

However, domestic box office figures painted a less promising picture. After a strong debut on Friday, earnings dipped by 57.84% on Saturday and saw an additional 21.30% drop on Sunday. By the end of the opening weekend, the movie had netted ₹89.6 crore in India.

Day-Wise Box Office Breakdown

Day 1 (Friday): ₹51 crore

Day 2 (Saturday): Sharp decline of 57.84%

Day 3 (Sunday): ₹17 crore net earnings in India

The film’s collections were primarily driven by the Telugu audience, contributing ₹8 crore on Sunday. The Hindi version followed closely with ₹7.7 crore, while Tamil and Kannada versions added ₹1.2 crore and ₹0.1 crore, respectively.

Global Success Amid Domestic Struggles

While the Indian box office presented challenges, Game Changer fared better internationally, with overseas earnings reaching ₹22 crore during the weekend.

Interestingly, the producers claimed a much higher figure, stating that the movie grossed over ₹186 crore worldwide on its opening day. The discrepancy between the reported figures from producers and industry trackers remains a point of discussion.

Cast and Production

Directed by S. Shankar and produced under the banner of Sri Venkateswara Creations by Dil Raju, Game Changer features an ensemble cast, including S. J. Suryah, Nassar, Brahmanandam, Vennela Kishore, and Murali Sharma.

Despite its mixed box office performance, the film continues to attract audiences for its political drama narrative and star-studded lineup.

Conclusion

While Game Changer managed to cross the ₹100 crore mark globally in its opening weekend, its domestic collections fell short of expectations. The coming days will determine whether the film can sustain its momentum and recover from its weekend decline.
