King of Kotha (King of കൊത്ത)

During the British rule, Kotha used to be a wasteland

Hardened criminals who were put to death without a trial were buried here

Later, people came from Kerala and Tamil Nadu and settled here

Now, this is a small town

On one side, the wealthy lifestyle of rich traders

And on the other, the bleak streets where darkness thrived

Kotha was home to two different worlds

As if intoxicated by the smell of blood in its soil...

a new clan of criminals emerged in Kotha

Even the smartest cops who came here went back defeated

Eventually, the townspeople came to a conclusion

This is the fate of Kotha

KING OF KOTHA

That's when destiny sent this man to Kotha

-Are you tired? -No

We are almost there

Kotha is just beyond that bridge

Look out... a boy!

Hey... what are you doing?

I haven't had anything to eat for two days, sir

Give him

Here

Great!

Don't you start whining again

You just had your milk

You stay in the car I'll get a parcel

Pack five of those

Just a minute, sir

A boy asked me for some money saying he was hungry

But I think it was a ruse

That must be Sonu

To buy ganja

Great!

-Who is he? -He is from Kochi

He has been around for the last five years

I heard this town is notorious

Is that true?

You are a cop, sir

How do you know?

Kalikkutty has seen a lot of cops in her life

I'm Shahul Hassan

New Circle Inspector of town

Is it a punishment transfer, sir?

Yes

I came to mete out a few punishments

Is that okay?

Here you go, sir

Here

Okay

Who is Kannan Bhai?

I don't know

Okay

I'll get that

-Yes? -Hello, sir

Sir, I'm Tara and this is Sister Reena

We need to talk to you in private

Come in

-This is my wife -Hi

-Take a seat -Come, sister

Yes, tell me

Sir, I run a bookstore in town

I also volunteer at Kripa Rehabilitation Centre twice a week

This place is around 10 km from town

I'm in charge of the centre, sir

Sir, please take a look at this

KRIPA DE-ADDICTION CENTRE

Kotha's young generation is digging its own grave

Young men who are the only hope of their families

Drugs have impaired their judgment

It has ruined their lives

This cartel is run by one man

Kannan

Kannan Bhai

I've been hearing it ever since I got transferred here

His name!

Sir, we have pinned our hopes on you

You have cracked down on crime at every station limit you served

Please find a solution, sir

Leave it to me, Sister

It's my duty...

not a favour

KOTHA POLICE STATION

I heard he is hot-tempered

So keep your jokes to yourself

Okay, sir

Good morning, sir

Good morning

-Tony, right? -Sir

Sir, I'm Janardhanan, ASI

Take a seat

-You are from around here, Tony? -Yes, sir

And you are a good football player?

I play football, that's all, sir

No, Tony sir is a terrific player

He was the top scorer in the last federation cup

What is that?

You asked me to call...

the troublemakers in town and get their signatures

Oh yes, let me see

Most of the signatures are pathetic

Suitcase Leslie!

-Why is he called so? -He is a contract killer

He is out on bail now

One suitcase is plenty for a man to rest

That's his philosophy

He is a nice guy otherwise, sir

Peelan, Erilan, Rock, Mymu Obbball, Roly-Poly...

Seven of them haven't signed, why?

That's Kannan and his K Team

Kannan Bhai asked us to go to his casino with the register

Are you serious?

Even our superiors go there to meet Kannan

I don't care

I bet he hasn't met a real policeman

-Sir, we... -Wait

What are you muttering?

Sir, you replaced Bijoy sir here

So?

Do you know why Bijoy sir left?

I heard he went on leave to pursue higher studies

Do you want to know the truth, sir?

Is Bijoy sir home?

Yes

Sorry, I didn't get you

You are the only person in Kotha who doesn't know me

Come on, guys

Chess!

The royal game

What do you want, rascal?

Daddy!

Oh no!

-Leave me -Stop it!

-Come on, sister -Oh no, please!

-What are you doing? -Let me go

-Leave me -Stay still

Sir, do you know how much two kilos of cocaine cost?

Mummy

-Son! -Sit down, son

-Come on, sit -Please don't hurt my son

-Shall we play a game? -Let me go

Leave me

Your turn

Daddy?

-Your turn! -No!

Don't you want to live when daddy is gone?

Son

Do as he says, son

Good move!

You aren't moved by fear

-Let me go -I'll get my load from the police station

Here's one lakh rupees

I don't want your damn money

So you don't want my money?

Let me go

Sister knows how difficulty it is to look after a family

Three weeks

Your wound will heal in three weeks

-Bijoy -Hey you!

Remember...

I'm a government servant

I'm the government here

Please bhai, it wasn't me

Let me go, bhai I swear it wasn't me

So they are truly dangerous

Then let's go and meet them

Sir

-Wait here -Yes, sir

-Let's go in -Sir

Hello

Brother-in-law

I found my true love

Rithu

Rithu Ravi

Her nickname is Ponnu

-She said yes to me -Jino...

I've warned you many times

It's not my job to settle your girlfriend issues

-But this is different -Jino... -Bhai

The CI is here to see you

Let him in

Hello, Shahul sir, come

Sit

Tony, sit

So this is the notorious K Team

Just rumours, sir

These boys faint at the sight of blood

Oh the signatures, bring it

No

Do you deal in drugs, Kannan?

Call him Kannan Bhai, sir

Don't teach me, rascal

Sir! -You! -No!

Sir is here to take the roll

That's right

Kotha no longer needs two roles It needs only one of us

Tony, learn something from him

You call yourself a policeman!

You need fire in your belly
