737 needs approx 1500 m of runway at sea level - with some variation for the different models, air temp, wind, load. Calicut is nearly sea level and has 2700 m of runway - so plenty of room.

Because of heavy rains and wind pilot may have touched down too far into the runway. Just speculating.

What about wet runways and heavy winds?
