S. Shankar's Game Changer is up for release sometime in January, 2025. The makers has now released its upcoming third single Naanaa Hyraanaa's promo poster. And what poster it reveals-Kiara Advani's look turned into an apsara and splashed all over the website for different reactions. What many found interesting, many have lambasted her portrayal. The song composed by Thaman S and written by Ramjogayya Sastry is a romantic track that offers a star-spangled ensemble of vocals which includes Karthik and Shreya Ghoshal. That's all that the fans have, as the visual presentation seems less appealing.

Earlier promotional materials had led fans to believe that Kiara’s character in the film would embody a glamorous “Bond girl” persona. However, the newly revealed look has drawn criticism and confusion. On Reddit, a thread titled “Wtf is this ?? ATP Kiara should just sue the Game Changer movie unit” became a hub for fan disappointment. Comments ranged from critiques of her appearance to dissatisfaction with the creative choices. One user lamented, “No way is that her. The first pic is so bad—her eyebrows are uneven, the expression feels off, and her makeup looks overly caked.” Another questioned, “How did anyone approve this? Unless they intentionally wanted her to look bad.”

Some went so far as to compare the poster with Deepika Padukone's famous first look in Om Shanti Om and labelled it a bad imitation. “This first poster feels very much like a cheap version of Deepika's Om Shanti Om look,” said a user, while another noticed, “The photoshopping is terrible, and hardly something out of three years of hard work.”

As the song releases today, fans are hoping that the music video will make up for the chill reception to the poster. Game Changer is Kiara Advani's second film in Telugu with Ram Charan after Vinaya Vidheya Rama in 2019. Fans are still discussing whether this poster has managed to show Kiara in a captivating avatar really well.
