Yogesh Ramanchandran
Ace (2025) dives into the messy, wild world of underground poker, where luck is just a rumor and trust is a luxury nobody can afford. Yogesh Ramanchandran leads the charge as Arjun, a sharp-tongued hustler with a knack for reading people almost as well as he reads cards. Arjun isn’t just playing to win—he’s after something way bigger: revenge on the mob boss who ruined his family years ago. The stakes? Stupidly high. Every hand could be his ticket to freedom or his last mistake.
The story throws you into smoky rooms packed with sketchy players, double-crosses, and backroom deals that’d make your grandma clutch her pearls. There’s a wild crew around Arjun—his childhood friend turned rival, a mysterious woman with her own agenda, and a washed-up poker legend who’s seen better days but still knows every trick in the book. And yeah, the cops are always one step behind, just waiting for someone to slip.
But Ace isn’t just another poker movie. It’s about obsession, loyalty, and figuring out who you are when the chips are down. Ramanchandran brings some real grit to Arjun, making him more than just a card shark—you actually root for the guy, even when he’s making terrible choices. The whole thing builds up to this totally insane final showdown where it’s not just money on the line, but Arjun’s whole future. And, man, the ending? Let’s just say, you might want to hold your breath.
