Casual, everyday Malayalam — not textbook. By Reshmi R Nair, Malayalam Linguist.

ഈദ് ആശംസകൾ!
Eid aashamsakal! — Happy Eid!

In short: To wish "Eid Mubarak", many simply say ഈദ് മുബാറക്! (Eid Mubarak!) or ഈദ് ആശംസകൾ! (Eid aashamsakal!). The Malayalam word for the festival is പെരുന്നാൾ (perunnaal), so പെരുന്നാൾ ആശംസകൾ (perunnaal aashamsakal) also works.
