The much-awaited second season of director Ahammed Khabeer’s ‘Kerala Crime Files’ is finally ready to hit your screens. The gripping Malayalam crime thriller returns with Aju Varghese, Lal, Navas Vallikunnu, and Sanju Sanichen reprising their roles as cops, while a new set of cast members adds fresh plot to the storyline. And now, the makers have officially revealed the OTT release date, along with some exciting details about what’s in store this season.
The wait is almost over for fans of ‘Kerala Crime Files.’ The web series, which is expected to have 6–8 episodes like its debut season, will begin streaming on June 20, 2025, exclusively on JioHotstar. This season will be available in Malayalam, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, and Hindi.
The second season promises an intense narrative twist. Unlike the first season, which followed a traditional investigative arc, Season 2 brings a compelling role reversal. This time, CPO Ambili Raju, one of the police officers, becomes the prime suspect in a serious incident, turning the tables and putting him on the run. As the investigation unfolds, SI Noble leads, adding tension and emotional complexity to the chase.
The teaser hints at a gripping cat-and-mouse game, with suspense, moral dilemmas, and dark secrets bubbling just beneath the surface.
Arjun Radhakrishnan, known for his performances in ‘Pada,’ ‘Dear Friend,’ ‘Kannur Squad,’ and the Hindi web series ‘Rocket Boys,’ takes the lead in the second season of ‘Kerala Crime Files.’ He joins returning cast members Aju Varghese, Lal, Sanju Sanichen, and Navas Vallikunnu. This season also brings in several new faces, including Harisree Ashojan, Renjith Shekar, Suresh Babu, Noorin Shereef, Jeo Baby, Shibla Fara, and Bilas Chandrahasan.
Just like the first instalment, ‘Kerala Crime Files 2’ is directed by Ahammed Khabeer. The script comes from Bahul Ramesh, who also wrote and shot last year’s critically praised ‘Kishkindhaa Kaandam.’
As per IMDb, the core technical team remains unchanged, with Jithin Stanislaus handling cinematography, Hesham Abdul Wahab composing the music, and Mahesh Bhuvanend in charge of editing all of whom were part of the first season.
The trailer for ‘Kerala Crime Files 2’ is finally out, and it promises a gritty, suspense-packed ride. Running just under two minutes, the teaser sets the tone for a tense investigation that revolves around a murder with a missing person case, this time with cops caught in the crossfire.

The trailer doesn’t give too much away but hints at the storytelling and gripping pace that made the first season so compelling. With rising tension, complex characters, and a search that seems to be running out of time, ‘Kerala Crime Files 2’ looks all set to raise the stakes even higher.
