Explaining the postponement, the producers attributed it to the continued screening of some May releases and the favorable reception of June's films, which currently occupy a significant number of theatre screens. Notably, the multilingual blockbuster 'Kalki 2898 AD' is currently dominating the state's cinema halls, leaving limited availability for new releases like 'Kanakarajyam.'

'Kanakarajyam' is a narrative loosely inspired by real-life incidents, particularly revolving around a notable jewellery theft case that unfolded in Alappuzha back in 2005. On the last day, the makers unveiled the teaser for the film which promises a heartwarming family drama movie.


The film promises a compelling storyline with Indrans and Murali Gopy anchoring the narrative, supported by a talented ensemble cast including Leona Lishoy, Unni Raj, Sreejith Ravi, Jolly Chirayath, Dinesh Prabhakar, and Ramesh Kottayam. Directed by Sagar, the film is anticipated to offer a blend of drama and intrigue, delving into the complexities of the human experience against the backdrop of a gripping incident.
