KK Road is an attempt to unfurl the mysteries surrounding four corpses found abandoned near a deserted quarry. Devdas IPS is appointed by the Chief Minister (C K Padmanabhan) to probe into the deaths, and it doesn't take much time for the officer to decide that these are clear cases of homicide.
Investigative thrillers tend to drive around predetermined paths, and when a film makes a marked deviation from the routine, it tends to be noticed. KK Road makes no such attempt and retains all the thriller prerequisites down to their last detail.
The IPS officer has a nickname called Adiyodadi that he has earned from being a no-nonsense cop who would stop at nothing till he sees justice is meted out to the deprived. It remains more of a meager imitation of several other police roles that have been etched in our minds, and very rarely rises above the ordinary.
