A few days ago, we at OTTplay reported that the runtime of the film had been locked at three hours and two minutes. The initial cut of Kuberaa was three hours and fifteen minutes, but with the latest censor update, the film's final runtime will be under three hours.

When asked about this, Sekhar Kammula confirmed the development and said, “The runtime for Telugu and Tamil is different due to the censor process. The Tamil version will be slightly longer, but the impact remains the same.”

Devi Sri Prasad has composed the music and has delivered some peppy tracks. Kuberaa is a social drama that revolves around the theme of black money. As per reports, the film contains several satirical scenes targeting various organisations, which is why it underwent heavy scrutiny from the censor board.

Produced by Sunil Narang, the film has taken a strong start in advance bookings. The Telugu bookings, in particular, are quite impressive, as audiences have been eagerly awaiting this release.
