At the press conference held in Mumbai on Saturday for the much-awaited film Game Changer, producer Dil Raju made a significant revelation about the film's musical extravaganza. Known for his innovative approach to filmmaking, Raju shared that a whopping 75 crores has been allocated to just five songs in the film. This bold investment reflects the scale and ambition with which the producer is approaching the project, and has left the industry buzzing.
Speaking about the film’s vision, Raju explained, "With Game Changer, I wanted to do something new. I thought, 'What can we do that is different?' Everyone in India does the pre-release event here, so I thought, let’s do something special and I took the team to the US and did a pre-release event in Dallas."
The Dallas event turned out to be an unforgettable experience, with an audience of 12,000 fans creating an electric atmosphere. "It was an extraordinary event in Dallas.12,000 people were there. It was a sea of people, and it went on for 4 hours. It was an amazing experience." The energy and excitement surrounding the event was a testament to the film's global appeal, with fans from across the world gathering to celebrate Game Changer.
Raju went on to reveal the staggering budget allocated to the songs, emphasizing the scale at which these musical sequences were created. "The total budget for the five songs is 75 crores. Every song took around 10 -12 days to shoot. Shankar sir designs every song meticulously, and each one requires a massive set. We even built huge sets in Hyderabad to capture the essence of each track. For one song, the team went to New Zealand and shot there for 10 days. " The grand sets and larger-than-life visuals are set to elevate the songs, making them a highlight of the film.
This investment underscores Dil Raju’s commitment to ensuring that Game Changer is not just another film, but an experience. His desire to create something truly spectacular is evident in his approach to every aspect of the movie, particularly the music. "This is my 50th film under our banner, and I wanted something truly special."
The ambitious scale of this project has set high expectations, and fans around the world can’t wait to see the film. Game Changer is releasing in the cinemas on 10th january, 2025.
