Mega hero Varun Tej’s recent movie, Matka, was released in cinemas a few days ago but failed to make a significant impact at the box office. Despite Varun’s commendable performance, the film underperformed due to several reasons. Directed by Karuna Kumar, this period crime drama fell short of expectations.
The latest buzz is that the movie’s streaming rights have been sold to the popular OTT platform Netflix for a whopping Rs. 15 crore. However, considering its budget of around Rs. 45 crore, recovering the remaining amount through theatrical revenue seems highly unlikely. It remains to be seen how the movie fares at the box office in the coming days.
Meenakshi Chaudhary plays the female lead, with Nora Fatehi, Satyam Rajesh, and others in pivotal roles. The film was jointly produced by Vyra Entertainments and SRT Entertainments, with music composed by GV Prakash Kumar.
