There is a Malayalam hyphenation dictionary available at https://thottingal.in/blog/2017/04/05/libreoffice-malayalam-hyphenation/

It is packaged as a LibreOffice extension, which is a .oxt file type. That is a kind of .zip file, so if you download the file and rename the .oxt file as .zip you can then unzip it and the hyphenation dictionary will be available for you to install using the standard instructions for installing dictionaries in Publisher:

Hyphenation issues aside, Malayalam (like Bengali, Tamil, and others) isn’t properly supported in the Affinity apps, so you’re likely to encounter various rendering anomalies when you use it in an Affinity document.

I think Affinity should introduce the world-ready layout option in Affinity software like Adobe to solve the issue with Unicode and google fonts. FML fonts work smoothly in Affinity. Please look into this and add the world-ready layout option in the paragraph tab as soon as possible.
