The much-anticipated action drama, “Matka,” featuring Mega Prince Varun Tej in the lead role, is currently in its final shooting schedule. The production is taking place at the renowned Ramoji Film City, and the excitement surrounding the film is palpable. Director Karuna Kumar is helming this project, promising an intriguing and engaging narrative based on a real-life incident that sent shockwaves through the nation.
A recent leaked picture from the film’s set has captured the attention of fans and industry insiders alike. In the image, Varun Tej is seen with a clean shave and curly hair, sporting a red towel around his neck. This seemingly simple detail has sparked a wave of speculation and excitement among Mega fans. The red towel, often associated with the working-class community, has gained prominence in recent years due to its association with Pawan Kalyan and his Janasena party. Varun Tej’s choice to wear this particular accessory has fueled anticipation and curiosity about the context and significance of the scene.
Beyond the red towel, the episodes shot in the Old Vizag set are reportedly the most significant highlights of the film. “Matka” is deeply rooted in a real-life incident, and the director’s meticulous attention to detail is evident in the screenplay and dialogues. The ensemble cast, including Naveen Chandra, Kannada Kishore, Ajay Ghosh, Mime Gopi, Roopalakshmi, Vijayrama Raju, Jagadeesh, Raj Thirandas, and others, adds depth and diversity to the narrative.
Karthika Srinivas is handling the editing, while GV Prakash Kumar is composing the music. Kishor Kumar serves as the director of photography. The female lead is played by Meenakshi Chaudhry, and Bollywood actress Nora Fatehi has been roped in for a pivotal role. While the official release date remains undisclosed, the buzz surrounding “Matka” continues to build, promising an exciting cinematic experience for audiences.
