malik (film) shooting location

Malik was launched with principal photography on 3 September 2019 in Kochi. The first schedule of the film was completed on 10 October 2019, and the second schedule subsequently began later on 24 October 2019. The cinematographer Sanu John Varghese and production designer Santhosh Raman recreated an entire coastal town in Kochi. During the second schedule, a huge part of the film has been shot at the sets of Kalamassery and the other part of the film has been shot in Thiruvananthapuram in a specially constructed set designed by the art department to replicate the period of 1980s. 

Since the scenes required a large amount of crowd and handling them in a real location is not easy, the team had recreated the design and set it in a fictional place, so they can shoot in a controlled environment. Hollywood stunt choreographer Lee Whittaker, has been announced as a part of the technical crew. The principal shooting of the film was completed on 18 January 2020 and post-production works began soon after its completion. The team took two months for visual effects and 95% of post-production works were completed before the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown in India. The team resumed the activities later on May 2020.
