Thallumaala, the Malayalam action film, was widely praised for its storytelling style and action scenes. The movie's songs were also highly acclaimed for their unique lyrics and composition. While the film received two awards at the 2023 Kerala State Awards for editing and dance choreography, it missed out on recognition for its songs and composition. Many people have expressed their belief that Thallumaala deserved recognition for its music. Now actor Lukman Avaran in an interview with MediaOne Lite admitted that he expected an award for the film's music director Vishnu Vijay.

"We didn't celebrate the awards we received for Thallumaala. However, we congratulated the winners in our Whatsapp group. There were no other celebrations. We were expecting awards for editing and music. I had hoped for Vishnu Vijay to receive an award, but unfortunately, it didn't happen. Ultimately It is the decision of the jury and we cannot claim it. Although recognition brings happiness, we are not working in a film solely to receive awards."
