Months after the release of Game Changer, the Telugu film starring Ram Charan and directed by S. Shankar, the film’s original editor Shameer Muhammed has publicly criticized the director, calling the experience of working with him “terrible” and “unprofessional.” Shameer revealed that despite spending almost a year in Chennai working on the film, he eventually walked out due to scheduling conflicts and the filmmaker’s lack of professionalism.

Speaking to Kaumudy Movies, Shameer shared, “It was during the last six months that they said I would need to stay for another month. I had prior commitments in Kerala, so I returned. When I started editing, the film was around 7 to 7.5 hours long. I brought it down to three and a half hours. Later, another editor joined and further trimmed it to 2.5 to 3 hours.”
