The film also achieved considerable commercial success at the box office, grossing ₹39 crore worldwide, against a budget of ₹6.5 crore and gained cult status. It received universal critical acclaim, and has been listed by several publications as one of the best Malayalam films of the decade.
The film was released in India and GCC territories on 7 February 2019. Narayanan then spent a year in Kumbalangi to understand its culture better, before shooting began in September 2018. By 2016, Faasil and Pothan, both of whom had worked closely with Narayanan and Pushkaran on previous films, had agreed to co-produce the film. In 2011, he discussed the story with then-assistant director Narayanan, who decided to make his directorial debut with it. Pushkaran came up with the idea for the film based on the time he spent in the village in his twenties. Set in the eponymous fishing village of Kumbalangi in Kochi, Kerala, the film centres on the strained relationship between four brothers living together in a dysfunctional home, and how they ultimately stand up for each other as a family. The soundtrack and background score is composed by Sushin Shyam. The cinematography and editing were handled by Shyju Khalid and Saiju Sreedharan, respectively. The film stars Shane Nigam, Fahadh Faasil, Soubin Shahir and Sreenath Bhasi, along with newcomers Anna Ben, Grace Antony and Mathew Thomas in pivotal roles. The directorial debut was written by Syam Pushkaran and jointly produced by Fahadh Faasil and Nazriya Nazim under their production house Fahadh Faasil and Friends, in association with Dileesh Pothan and Syam Pushkaran under Working Class Hero. Many houses in the village are homestays and visitors can book their stay directly with homestay operators.Kumbalangi Nights is a 2019 Indian Malayalam-language drama film directed by Madhu C.
