Official trailer and plot of King of Kotha


The film is set in a crime-infested town ruled by Kannan Bhai and his gang of goons. To combat the deteriorating situation and rescue the townspeople from the gang’s tyranny, Inspector Shahul Hassan devises a clever plan.

He tactfully orchestrates the return of the legendary “King” to the town, inspired by a tale he learns from a boy named Tony. The man, named Raju, had always tried to lead a life different from the one fate had seemingly chosen for him.

Through flashbacks spanning various years and decades, the audience is taken back in time, revealing how the townspeople once feared Raju—until Kannan and his men took control, leading to generations of hostility.
