 In an earlier interview with OTTplay, the film's writer Abhilash N Chandran had said, “It’s a period film. It will have portions in the 1980s as well as the 1990s. Dulquer will be seen in multiple get-ups in the movie.”

Abhilash Joshiy had told OTTplay that King of Kotha is not a typical mass film. He said, "It’s a gangster film based on the events that happen in a town called Kotha. It has equal importance to emotions, romance and songs as much as action."

The film will mark the directorial debut of veteran filmmaker Joshiy’s son Abhilash Joshiy. The period film has been extensively shot in Karaikudi, Rameshwaram, Madurai, Kochi and Manali.

King of Kotha is bankrolled by Dulquer’s Wayfarer Films and is said to be made on a massive budget. The gangster flick is also said to be one of the most-awaited projects of Dulquer Salmaan, who was not long ago seen in yet another period flick, Kurup.
