Matka (2024)

Synopsis

The story follows Varun Tej as a morally ambiguous protagonist, navigating the cutthroat world of gambling. His rise from a small-time hustler to a key player in a nationwide syndicate is filled with twists, betrayals, and moments of introspection. While the concept has potential, the screenplay often feels formulaic, relying on predictable tropes of the crime genre.

The emotional subplots involving Meenakshi Chaudhary as his love interest and Nora Fatehi in a surprisingly layered role as a rival bring some depth. Still, they aren’t given enough room to breathe. The film’s reliance on flashbacks to build its protagonist’s motivations, though engaging at times, hampers the narrative flow.
