Reception
''Behindwoods'' wrote "Malayan is a good attempt which could have been done with some more grip towards the latter portions. Its raw and earthy treatment might work to its advantage in the B and C centers." ''Indiaglitz'' wrote "Malayan is your average commercial flick for most part, with Karan given the Himalayan responsibility of making it worth a watch. And he fairly succeeds."
This film was Television premiered in SunTV on April 17' 2010 for weekend Saturday premier.
