Production

The series was shot in mid-2019 and was initially produced by Kutty Padmini and later by Applause Entertainment and Arpad Cine Factory.[5][6]

Release

The web series was released on 22 January 2021 on MX Player.[7] A critic from Binged.com noted "in terms of filmmaking aesthetics and treatment, Kuruthi may be no Mirzapur, but it is a good time-pass if one were to ignore the crassness. The reviewer added "the non-linear screenplay always has a surprise in store which more than makes up for the absence of finesse in the execution".[8] A review from entertainment portal LetsOTT noted it was a "time-worn gangster tale that does not surprise you anywhere".[8]
