An Intriguing Trailer
The teaser of the film was released a few days ago. The teaser hints at a thriller set in a forest reserve area called Kallepathi. Asif Ali and Aparna Balamurali are shown to be playing husband and wife in the film, and Vijayaraghavan playing Asif’s father. From the trailer, it seems like Vijayaraghavan’s character is a man with a past he seeks to hide. There are multiple shots of the verdant green, the flora and fauna; and in particular, the monkeys that lend the film its interesting trailer. The teaser also refers to the imposition of Section 144 in the area following a public threat and strong Naxal movements ranging back from the 1970s. The cast of Kishkindha Kaandam also includes Nishan, Jagadish, Ashokan, Nizhalgal Ravi, Shebin Benson, Major Ravi, and Kottayam Ramesh.

Dinjith Ayyathan, who is known for directing the Asif Ali starrer Kakshi Amminipilla, has directed Kishkindha Kaandam based on a screenplay by Bahul Ramesh, who has also performed the duties as the film's cinematographer. The film reunites Asif and Dinjith after their last team up in Kakshi Amminipilla, which was critically well received.
Kishkindha Kaandam has been produced by Joby George under the Goodwill Entertainments banner. The makers wrapped up production on the film in August, 2023. The film features music director Sushin Shyam and editor Sooraj ES among the upcoming film's technical team.
