What’s the story of King of Kotha
The story of King of Kotha starts with a police officer being threatened by a local criminal. In response, the officer decides to bring back a previous local bigwig to face combat against the villain.
Raju Madrasi, a former member of the criminal underworld in the town of Kotha, is played by Dulquer, who has returned to the village to reclaim his crown. However, in order to recover his status in the town, he would first have to contend with Kannan (Shabeer Kallarakkal), the current mobster who is in control of Kotha.

The majority of the filming is done in and around Cochin, with some scenes also shot in various locales in and around Trivandrum.
