Mariyam Mukku (Malayalam: മറിയം മുക്ക് ) is a 2015 Malayalam comical romantic film written and directed by James Albert. The film marks the directorial debut of Malayalam scenarist James. The film was distributed by LJ Films. It stars Fahadh Faasil and Sana Althaf in the lead roles along with Manoj K. Jayan, Joy Mathew, Irshad, Sadiq, Nandhu, Prathap Pothan and Saju Navodaya in other important roles. The film score and music was composed by Vidyasagar.
The film depicts a love story between Felix, (Fahadh Faasil) and Salomi (Sana Althaf). Both lives in Mariyam Mukku, a coastal area with a unique Latin Christian culture. The movie was shot at Tangasseri beach in Kollam. The film released on 23 January 2015 on theatres and met with negative reviews from critics.
The filming started in October, 2014 and was shot in the locations at Tangasseri, Vizhinjam and Kapil. The shooting was meant to be completed in two schedules, and the film was set to release by 23 January 2015. It was earlier reported that Hima Davis would play the female lead. However, later confirmed that Sana had replaced her in the film. She was earlier seen in Vikramadithyan (2014).
A teaser was released by LJ films on 21 December 2014, following by a second teaser released on 6 January 2015.
The film features four tracks composed by Vidyasagar. He has composed a different kind of music while retaining his trademark style of melody. All the songs garnered fine appreciation from critics. Ee Kadalinu Kolu, the melodious track brings the feel of rain, storm, sea and love – all blending together, indicating the blossoming of love between the lovers in a monsoon. Kavil, with a Latin-American flavour, has been composed as a folk song recounting how the Portuguese had come and gone. Swargam Thurannu, with its divine feel, it's a Christmas night carol song. Mekkarayil, there is a change happening in the seashore. As the waves come and go, this song even though a fast paced, gives the feel of each line coming and going.
