Aamayum Muyalum (transl. The tortoise and the rabbit) is a 2014 Indian Malayalam-language comedy drama film written and directed by Priyadarshan, and co-produced by Jaison Pullikkottil under the banner Full House Entertainment. It is a remake of the director's own Hindi movie Malamaal Weekly which itself was a remake of Waking Ned.[1] The film has a cast of Jayasurya, Piaa Bajpai, Innocent, Nedumudi Venu, Anoop Menon, Harisree Ashokan and Mamukkoya in prominent roles.[2] The music is composed by M. G. Sreekumar.[3]

The film's story revolves the story of the various characters in a village. Kashi, Nallavan, Kallu, Thamara try to shroud a murder that happens in their village. But it lands them in more trouble and they fear that they will be caught any time. Humor, romance, and suspense find space in the plot of this movie

The film, which commenced production in August 2014, was released on 19 December 2014 during Christmas.
