Coming to a conclusion
Contexto cultural
Decisions are rarely individual. Even for personal matters like buying a phone, Malayalis often consult 'naalu per' (four people/society). In business, 'theerumanam edukkuka' is often delayed to ensure hierarchy is respected. The 'boss' usually takes the final decision. The phrase is a 'mass' dialogue staple. When a hero says he has taken a decision, it usually means a fight is coming. Marriage decisions (Pennu kaanal) are the most common context for this phrase in a formal family setting.
Use the Past Tense

Avoid 'Cheyyuka'
Never say 'theerumanam cheyyuka'. It sounds like a direct translation from English and is a hallmark of a beginner.
