Krishna Kuchela is 1961 Indian Malayalam-language Hindu mythological film directed and produced by Kunchacko. Revolving around the Hindu god Krishna and his friend Kuchela, the film stars Prem Nazir, KPAC Sulochana, Hari, T. S. Muthaiah and Ambika Sukumaran. It was released on 18 November 1961 and became a box-office bomb.
The story is the mythological relationship between Krishna and Kuchela.
The music was composed by K. Raghavan and lyrics were written by P. Bhaskaran.
Krishna Kuchela was released on 18 November 1961, nine days after another film based on the same story, Bhakta Kuchela. Though Bhakta Kuchela was a box office success, Krishna Kuchela was not. According to historian B. Vijayakumar, "The presence of Prem Nazir as Krishna, T S Muthiah as Kuchela and KPAC Sulochana as Kuchela's wife simply failed to attract viewers to the theatres."
