Matka King's trailer teased a story fronted by Vijay Varma, Sai Tamhankar, Kritika Kamra, and Gulshan Grover. But as director Nagraj Manjule's maiden web series drops on Prime Video today, we'll see another actor in the cast. Towards the end of the series, Viineet Kumar Siingh is seeded as a character, who goes on to become important in the already planned second season.

Insiders revealed that Manjule deliberately kept Siingh away from the promotions to maintain intrigue. "His character comes towards the end, but it's meant to shift the narrative. The actor shot his portions mid-2025. His character leaves things at a point where you know he will matter a lot, going forward," said an insider. Set in Mumbai of the 1960s, Matka King revolves around a small-time cotton trader who starts a gambling racket.

Viineet Kumar Siingh will also be seen in:

. ‘Dahaad 2'
