"Joining forces with Vijay Varma, whose work I deeply admire, is an exciting opportunity. Nagaraj Manjule's vision and storytelling prowess are unmatched, and I am eager to bring my character to life under his direction. The story of 'Matka King' is not only intriguing but also rich in cultural history. It's an honor to be part of a project that draws inspiration from such a significant aspect of India's past. I can't wait for the audience to see what we've been working on and to experience the world of 'Matka King.'"

Director Nagaraj Manjule's involvement adds further prestige to the project, ensuring that "Matka King" will be a compelling addition to the crime drama genre. The collaboration of Kritika Kamra and Vijay Varma, coupled with Manjule's directorial expertise, promises a series that will captivate viewers with its intense narrative and dynamic performances.
