Ahead of Kumki 2's teaser release, the makers have announced that director-actor Sasikumar has lent his voice to the sequel. In a new video, Sasikumar is seen sitting with filmmaker Prabu Solomon, discussing details about the project and lending his voice for the film's narration.

The first look of film was released last month, along with a poster that signified that the sequel too will revolve around an elephant and how it has a strong connection with the local villagers. In an earlier interview with CE, Prabu Solomon mentioned that Kumki 2 will respect children and childhood. "Kids these days no longer draw a river and a mountain; instead, they draw characters with guns. That is very much reflective on how we as a society are not drawing a line on what children need to consume and what not to. Kumki 2 will take children on an adventure that often unfolds inside their heads." He also added that apart from the title, Kumki 2 is in no way related to the first film he made in 2012.

The sequel comes 13 years after the first film was released. The upcoming film stars Mathi as the lead, in his acting debut. Arjun Das, Shritha Rao, Andrews, Akash, Harish Peradi, and Srinath, among others also play key roles.

On the technical side, Prabu Solomon is reuniting with his Sembi collaborator Nivas K Prasanna, with lyrics by Prabu and Mohan Rajan, cinematography by M Sukumar, edits by Buvan, art direction by Vijay Thennarasu, and stunt choreography by Stun Shiva.

Kumki 2 is produced by Dhaval Gada, with Jayantilal Gada as the presenter, under the banners Pen Marudhar Cine Entertainments and Pen Studios. It is slated for release in theatres on November 14, during Children's day.
