Varun Tej Konidela is all set to play the role of a menacing godfather in his next film, titled Matka. The movie directed by Karuna Kumar featured the actor in a retro look, coinciding with the film’s period setup.

Besides Varun, the film also has actors like Meenakshi Chaudhary, Nora Fatehi, Naveen Chandra, Kannada Kishore, Ajay Ghosh, Mime Gopi, and many more in key roles. The film is slated to hit the big screens on November 14, 2024.

Check out the teaser for Varun Tej starrer Matka: 


The more than two-minute long teaser of the film Matka features Varun Tej as Vasu, who starts off as getting advised by actor Sai Kumar’s character to climb up the social ladder and become one of the elite. The teaser goes on to give us various glimpses of the character and his unapologetic rise in life, driven by ambition and greed.

The rise of the man in power from someone ordinary to a godfather-like gangster seems to be pitched in the teaser. Based on the Matka gambling scams popular during the 20th century, the film takes place from the late 1950s to the 1980s.

With Meenakshi Chaudhary and Nora Fatehi playing the leading ladies, the film is set to hit the screens in November and will be available in languages like Telugu, Hindi, Kannada, Tamil, and Malayalam.

Coming to Varun Tej Konidela’s work front, the actor was last seen playing the lead role in the movie Operation Valentine this year. The film directed by debutante Shakti Pratap Singh Hada was based on the 2019 Pulwama Attack and the retaliatory Balakot Air Strikes by the Indian Air Force.
