[10] One rainy night in the outskirts of Mumbai, three stray gangs unknowingly cross paths on the hunt for a van carrying crores of cash and it's every man for himself.

[11][12] Aasman, who studied screenwriting at the School of Visual Arts in New York University, penned the screenplay with his father, who also co-produced the film.

[14] Tabu, Arjun Kapoor, Naseeruddin Shah, Radhika Madan, Konkona Sen Sharma, Kumud Mishra and Shardul Bhardwaj were cast in primary roles with the film's announcement.

The soundtrack was released by T-Series on 9 January 2023 at the Mehfil-E-Khaas music launch event, which saw performances from Gulzar, Vishal and Rekha Bhardwaj.

"[27] Ronak Kotecha of The Times of India rated the film 3.5 out of 5 stars and wrote, "Kuttey starts off with a bang and keeps powering its screenplay with interestingly dark, sharp and self-centred characters".

Tabu tops the list her pitch is perfect and appears effortless, Kapoor has more to do, and the actor delivers an honest performance while Naseeruddin Shah, Konkana, Radhika, Shardul and Kumud make their limited time on screen count".

[28] Zinia Bandyopadhyay of India Today rated the film 3 out of 5 stars and wrote, "Kuttey is best enjoyed if you have a knack for dark and wry humour.

The performances are indeed the strong suit in the film Mishra and Kapoor both will leave you impressed, Tabu, steals the show, Madan is delight to watch, Naseerudin and Konkona’s extended cameo, sets the mood wish they had more screen time".

[30] Bollywood Hungama rated the film 3 out of 5 stars and wrote, "Kuttey rests on an interesting concept and strong performances but suffers from excessive violence and usage of cuss words".
