What is your view on Kochi becoming more multicultural?

Kochi is now a major tier 2 city that is globally connected – IT industry, major airport and shipping hub, and plenty of tourism coming in. Immigration has also increased in the past 15 or so years. Despite all this, imo Kochi remains a mainly monocultural Malayali city. There are scattered native communities of Tamils, Konkanis, Marwaris, etc but the visibility of non-Malayali cultures/languages is negligible apart from popularity of north Indian restaurants and worker communities from north/east India. To meet a random person in Kochi who doesn't speak Malayalam is still kind of exceptional. Would you as a Kochi resident/native like to see Kochi become more multicultural, to the point that Malayalam and Malayali culture are no longer overwhelmingly predominant? Do you think it will happen in the near future? I doubt Kochi will become diverse to the level of Bangalore or Mumbai at any rate. For context, I'm a Malayali who has lived in Kochi for a few years but largely outside of Kerala.
