Malik chronicles the journey of Sulaiman Malik (essayed by Fahadh Faasil), a charismatic leader bestowed with unconditional love and loyalty from the people of his community who leads a revolution against authoritative forces that try to encroach on the lives of his people. The movie spans different time periods, and it is a compelling story of a past ridden with crime, death, and pain that is recounted to Freddy, a juvenile criminal, who has been assigned to eliminate his estranged uncle, Sulaiman, while behind bars.
Director Mahesh Narayanan said that Malik is a story “rooted in the Indian ethos with multiple nuances in its character as well as the emotions they portray” and he hopes the film resonates with the expectations of the audience.
