Gambling is big business, and wherever there is a large amount of money involved, you can bet it will be criminalized in one way or another. Mankatha looks at, among other things, cricket betting during the IPL and the seedy underbelly of gambling at large. This Tamil action thriller references the match fixing scandal that very recently made waves across the country and the key protagonists of the movie are Vinayak Mahadevan (Ajith), a mafia don that is the ringleader of a betting operation, and C.I.D Officer Prithvi (Arjun Sarja) who swears to bring everyone that has done wrong to book. Directed by Venkat Prabhu and produced by Dayanidhi Alagiri, the movie perfectly depicts mystery, suspense and thriller deep rooted in the cricketing circuit. The movie is a cat and mouse game between Vinayak and Prithvi, both of whom symbolize the eternal battle between good and evil. Who will triumph in this high-stakes game of one-upmanship where everything is on the line? To know more, book your tickets now for Mankatha only on KyaZoonga!
