In 1944, after the genocide and deportation of the Chechen and Ingush people and the Chechen-Ingush ASSR was abolished, the village of Kulara was renamed to Naberezhnoye, and was settled by people from other ethnic groups.[4] From 1944 to 1957, it was a part of Grozny Oblast.

In 1957, when the Vaynakh people returned and the Chechen-Ingush ASSR was restored, the village regained its old name, Kulara.

On 1 January 2020, the village of Kulary, as well as the entire territory of the rural settlement, was transferred from Groznensky District to Achkhoy-Martanovsky District.[5]
