Director Shankar is currently immersed in the post-production of Game Changer, starring Ram Charan, which is slated for release on January 10, 2025. The project has been consuming all his time and focus.
Only after the release of Game Changer will Shankar determine the future of Bharateeyudu 3 (also known as Indian 3) with Kamal Haasan.
Following the underwhelming performance of Bharateeyudu 2 (Indian 2), discussions arose about releasing the third installment directly on OTT platforms.
However, reports suggest that OTT platforms have recommended a theatrical release for the third part instead.
As a result, Shankar is considering reshooting key portions of the film. However, whether Lyca Productions, the studio behind the project, will be willing to allocate additional funds will likely depend on the success of Game Changer.
The fate of Bharateeyudu 3 now hinges on how Game Changer performs at the box office.
