There are many films which make a special place in the hearts of the audience. Some movies are meant to entertain, while some are meant to make us think. Such films remain in our hearts and minds for a long time. This Friday, a movie has released which is definitely going to leave a deep impression on your mind – Match Fixing – Nations at Stake. The film is not only a brilliant thriller, but also takes us into the thick jungle of politics, terrorism and religious conspiracies, and portrays every aspect with such precision that you get lost in its world.
The film is inspired by Colonel Kanwar Khatana’s book ‘The Game Behind Saffron Terror’, which reveals the deep truths in the context of terrorist attacks in India from 2004 to 2008 and the 26/11 Mumbai attacks. The film’s protagonist, Colonel Avinash Patwardhan (Vineet Kumar Singh), is an undercover army officer tasked with uncovering a major political conspiracy. The main theme of the film is to expose the false theory of “saffron terror”, where Hindus are blamed for terrorist attacks, for political gain. The film depicts the complex web of politics, terrorism and international relations.
The director of the film, Kedar Gaikwad, has directed the film in a very powerful way. His storytelling style and deep understanding of every scene completely captivates the audience. Every scene of the film is presented in such a way that it takes the audience into deep thoughts along with action and thrill-filled adventure. Gaekwad’s cinematography should also be appreciated, as every frame shows deep reality and seriousness, bringing the atmosphere of the film to life.
The film is edited by Ashish Mathre, who makes every moment count while moving the story along at a brisk pace. While Anuj S. Mehta’s script is extremely strong, presenting a complex political story in a simple and effective manner. He has made the film interesting by combining various political contexts and events very well.

Talking about acting in the film, Vineet Kumar Singh has left a deep impression in the role of Colonel Avinash Patwardhan. He plays his role with such precision that he comes across not only as a brave soldier but also as a man in love with his family. His acting becomes the soul of the film. Anuja Sathe gives a very effective performance as the Colonel’s wife, which adds to the emotional depth of the film. Senior actors like Manoj Joshi, Kishore Kadam and Raj Arjun are also excellent in their roles, especially the depth that Raj Arjun shows in the role of a Pakistani colonel is commendable.

Samir Garud’s dialogues are extremely sharp and effective. Deep political and social understanding is hidden in every dialogue of the film. Be it a political debate or a conversation between military officers, each line carries a specific message.
The film’s music is composed by Rimi Dhar, which perfectly captures the gravity and thrill of the story. Singing the title song of the film in the voice of Daler Mehndi adds more excitement and energy to the film. Along with this, Rishi Girdhar’s background score is also excellent. Its music reinforces the immediacy of the events and completely immerses the audience in the world of the film.
There is no hesitation about the production design of the film. Every scene, be it military uniforms or political meetings, looks completely realistic. This reinforces the realistic approach of the film.
