Kishkindha Kaandam trailer: The official trailer of actors Asif Ali and Aparna Balamurali’s upcoming mystery film Kishkindha Kaandam is here, offering a glimpse of a thrilling journey through the wilderness of Kerala. Directed by Dinjith Ayyathan, the 149-second trailer opens on a light note with a charming background score. “Except Hanuman and Sugriva, the entire army of monkeys resides here,” Ajay (Asif Ali) says, referring to his native place. It is soon revealed that Ajay works for the Forest Department.

As the trailer unfolds, its tone shifts to reveal a sense of mystery. We quickly learn that the central conflict involves Ajay’s father Appu Pillai (Vijayaraghavan), a former Army officer. While the trailer teases a gripping narrative, it also promises to explore the lush landscapes of Kerala, where the lives of several characters become increasingly intertwined. The tagline, “A tale of three wise monkeys,” adds to the intrigue.
