"Rounders" is a top fave movie with many gamblers...now it could be on a cell phone near you.

When it comes to films about gambling, most players will include the cult movie "Rounders" on their list of all time greats about their passion. This week news emerged that a savvy Indian company is about to use it in a new mobile gambling offering.

"Rounders Poker" will give fans a chance to relive the movie in the role of lead character Mike, challenging the underground poker world in what promises to be an absorbing game.

Produced by Nazara Technologies in India, the game incorporates quotes and dialogue from "Rounders", with interaction with several other characters from the popular movie, including Teddy KGB.

Nazara has claimed that the production features stunning graphics; first-person action with three modes of game play; story-based mode with settings and characters based on the movie; cheat elements such as bottom dealing and signaling; innumerable opponents, each with its own avatar; multi-player options for up to seven players; customisable stakes, chat, invitations and buddy lists and facilities whereby players can create their own unique images in the game from a wide inventory of characters.

Nitish Mittersain, Nazara's CEO claims: "With 'Rounders Poker,' we believe we have a strong franchise that will not only appeal to the fans of the movie, but will also provide a captivating poker experience unlike anything that has ever been achieved before on the mobile platform."
