Performance in Malayalam
Performance in the sense of working or carrying something out is പ്രവര്ത്തം (pravartham). It is a formal noun, close to functioning, and it suits a report on how a machine or a scheme is doing. Say pra-var-tham.
Working, performance, beginning.
പുതിയ പദ്ധതിയുടെ പ്രവര്ത്തം ഇന്ന് തുടങ്ങി.
puthiya paddhathiyude pravartham innu thudangi.
The working of the new project began today.
