Director Shankar recently unveiled some details about working with filmmaker Karthik Subbaraj for the film Game Changer, starring Ram Charan. Speaking in an interview for Galatta Plus, the director was asked about his process of working with Karthik.

In response, the Indian 2 director said, “The process was that he narrated the story and I just recorded it. After recording, I developed it.” The director also added how some portions were open-ended and after hearing everything, he thought about several ideas and made the screenplay into his own style of movies.

Speaking more on the process of working with Karthik Subbaraj like this, the director said, “It was different. Even if Karthik gave the basic story, I gave it to writers and developed it, and even after that, I completed the final version myself. I enjoyed that process.”

Moreover, Shankar also added how he enjoyed writing the scenes involving SJ Suryah and Ram Charan. He conveyed how he went further to polish the scenes more and more.

Director Shankar was recently seen releasing his movie Indian 2, starring Kamal Haasan in the lead role. The movie, which is the sequel to the 1996 classic Indian, features the continuation of the story of Senapathy and his actions against corruption in India.
