What Is Constable Kanakam About?
Constable Kanakam is a Telugu-language mystery thriller set in the fictional village of Repalle in Srikakulam during the 1990s. The story follows PC Kanaka Mahalakshmi, known as Kanakam, a newly posted constable who gets drawn into a series of disappearances linked to a feared forest area called Adavi Gutta. Women who enter Adavi Gutta never return, and when Kanakam’s own friend goes missing, she takes it upon herself to unravel the truth that the village has buried for decades.
The series blends period drama with folklore-tinged horror and procedural crime, giving it a distinctive identity among Telugu OTT originals. Creator and director Prasanth Kumar Dimmala built the world of Kanakam from scratch for ETV Win, and both Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 earned strong reviews for their pacing, atmosphere, and Varsha Bollamma’s lead performance. Chapter 3 is expected to continue the same narrative thread with new layers of the central mystery.
Who Stars in Constable Kanakam Chapter 3?
The core cast of Constable Kanakam is expected to return for Chapter 3. Varsha Bollamma leads the series as the tenacious Kanakam, delivering what many critics called a career-redefining performance across the first two chapters. Rajeev Kanakala plays Head Constable B. Samba Siva Rao, Kanakam’s senior officer and a key figure in the unfolding investigations.
The full cast list for Chapter 3 has not been officially announced yet. Given the anthology-style structure of each chapter, some new characters may be introduced while the core ensemble continues. Music for the series is composed by Suresh Bobbili, whose background score was widely praised for setting the eerie tone of the 1990s Srikakulam setting.
How Did Constable Kanakam Chapters 1 and 2 Perform?
Constable Kanakam became one of ETV Win’s biggest original successes when it launched in August 2025. The series drew significant attention, with its trailer even earning praise from Chiranjeevi, who watched and appreciated it before release. Chapter 1 ran six episodes and built a loyal audience on the strength of its 90s village backdrop, folklore elements, and Varsha Bollamma’s grounded performance.
