Kohinoor – Malayalam Heist Movie
Set in 1988, Kohinoor revolves around a planned diamond robbery. Haider, who worked for the Mumbai underworld, develops a plan to steal diamonds connected to a racket operating through the Kohinoor textile store.
The period setting and robbery storyline make Kohinoor an interesting addition to Malayalam cinema’s relatively small collection of dedicated heist films.

Surya TV purchased the Malayalam satellite television rights of Kohinoor.
During this period, the channel was actively expanding its Malayalam movie library. Life of Josutty and Double Barrel were among the other notable films acquired by Surya TV.
