Today, the world is standing at crossroads with several societal, cultural and environmental problems including terrorism, scarcity of food, health hazards and disturbances in family and societal life. Kannakazchakal aims to create awareness of the problems and the solutions of the environmental-societal-cultural issues, the world is facing now. The drama aims to generate awareness of the water-environmental pollution and the solutions and steps to solve them.
