Mega hero Varun Tej is gearing up for the third schedule of his upcoming film “Matka” directed by Karuna Kumar. Because of the scheduled release of Operation Valentine and the filming that occurred prior to its release, Varun Tej has to regrow his hair and beard to resume shooting for the previous movie.
Meanwhile, reports from reliable sources reveal that Varun will portray a character spanning three different timelines: a 20-year-old, a 30-year-old, and a 50-year-old, in this action-packed film set against a vintage backdrop.
Remarkably, for the role of the 50-year-old, Varun is committed to gaining real belly weight without relying on prosthetics. This unique challenge will require a significant schedule gap, during which he plans to consume ample food to transform his physique. It’s indeed a daunting task that echoes the efforts of Amir Khan, who underwent a similar transformation for the film Dangal transitioning from a bulked-up physique to a six-pack for specific scenes.
The success of Varun’s endeavor could potentially draw parallels to Amir Khan’s transformative journey, showcasing his dedication to the craft. However, there’s speculation among netizens that if this experiment falls short, it may impact Varun Tej’s career. The stakes are high, and all eyes are on the mega hero as he takes on this challenging and real-life stunt. Only time will reveal the outcome of Varun’s ambitious portrayal across multiple timelines in Matka.
