In a recent interview with YouTube channel Muzik247, Malayankunju music director, A.R. Rahman said time was tight, but the film's unique premise intrigued it. The composer said he was in Dubai when Fahad called him and he wanted to show him a movie. Running out of time, the musician invited the actor to Dubai to watch a film.
Rahman was impressed with the subject but asked the actor to collaborate on another project. However, Fahad persuaded the musician to write music for his upcoming film. Rahman said he's never seen a character like in Malayankunju, and he's never worked with a radio mechanic character who could be even if he wasn't a songwriter. The Composer said he followed the character's thought process and tried to create a variety of sounds to suit his setting.

Malayankunju movie review
Anikuttan (Fahd Faasil), an electrician by profession, lives with his mother Shanta (Jaya Kurupu) in a village near Wayanad. Her father Radhakrishnan (Jaafar Idukki) commits suicide due to his daughter running away from home on her wedding day. The blow constantly haunts Anikuttan, who looks down on the floor below, agitated by sounds and even the cry of a baby disturbs him.
In the monsoon season, when it starts raining heavily, his neighbors want to go camping, but he refuses. And that night, a mudslide occurs and he gets stuck under it. What happens to Anikotan, can he survive and what happens to his mother forms the rest of the film.
Fahadh Faasil does a great job of providing two types of features before and after a landslide. The film belongs to him. His behavior as a damaged son, a brother who doesn't want to forgive his sister, and a man who looks tough but is very soft emotionally is perfectly executed.
The second part of the film is about the landslide that happened a year ago in Rajamala near Wayanad. Watching this scene gives you a shock wave of how hard and traumatic it must have been for someone who experienced the pain. A time-lapse movie is like watching death face to face. It gets into your veins and is technically, visually, and functionally excellent.
