Ram Charan's 'Game Changer' and Prabhas' 'Project K' Move Out From Sankranthi 2024 Race?

Hyderabad, June 25 - The release calender of big-budget Pan-Indian movies continues to shake up. Two of the most awaited movies, Ram Charan-starrer Game Changer and Prabhas-fronted Project K are such films which were announced a long time back but the shoot is still not completed. ## "Game Changer", which is being directed by Shankar, does not seem to getting completed anytime soon. Due to Shankar's other commitment to Kamal Haasan's "Indian 2", the shoot for Ram Charan's movie is having long delays, and as per the latest reports, around 80 days of shoot is still pending for the movie. ## The film was announced for Sankranthi 2024 release in multiple languages, but the latest reports have suggested that it won't be ready by that time. It is said that the "Game Changer" release date is now pushed to the Summer of 2024. It is produced by Dil Raju and the makers are unlikely to provide an update anytime soon as there is so much work still pending. ## Prabhas-fronted "Project K" is perhaps the most-anticipated Indian movie in the works at the moment. Directed by Nag Ashwin, the sci-fi action epic boasts a legendary cast that also features Amitabh Bachchan, Kamal Haasan, Deepika Padukone, and Disha Patani in prominent roles. ## "Project K" is believed to be a two-part feature film, however, the makers haven't made any official announcement regarding the same yet.

Aswani Dutt's Vyjayanthi Movies, is currently slated for January 12, 2024, release worldwide in multiple languages. ## The makers didn't mention the release date in their announcement of Kamal Haasan coming on board the film which led to speculations about its postponement. Rumors have been going on for the past few weeks that "Project K" might not be releasing this Sankranthi as it needs a long time in post-production. ## In case of both the aforementioned films move out from Sankranthi 2024 race, then Mahesh Babu's "Guntur Kaaram" remains the only big film to release during this festival. There are other Telugu biggies that will look to come on Sankranthi 2024 after the news about "Project K" and "Game Changer" get official. ##
