Varun Tej’s career has been going through a challenging phase, with a string of flops. He needs a hit to stay in the race as one of the bankable mid-range stars.
He is putting in maximum effort to promote Matka, conducting special tours across Andhra Pradesh. Rumor has it that Varun Tej is seeking support from Jana Sena party followers.
With Jana Sena currently allied with the ruling TDP and its cadres highly active, Varun Tej hopes to secure their backing to boost the film's opening collections.
Varun Tej has previously campaigned for his uncle Pawan Kalyan’s Jana Sena party and enjoys a strong following among its supporters, making him hopeful for their favor.
In Matka, directed by Karuna Kumar and set for release on November 14, Varun Tej plays the role of a gambler.
