Overall Rating: Water
Just a look at Kuttavum Shikshayum’s poster and you’re already fired up with so much excitement.
H.o.w.e.v.e.r, we were the ones who had more anticipation than the story itself. Kuttavum Shikshayum was a linear plot with no ‘ginger’ 😟

—Kuttavum Shikshayum exposed the plight of dedicated police officers who jeopardize their lives for little gain and recognition.
When his colleague ridiculed him for taking a mere theft matter too seriously, Sajan (Asif Ali) wanted to make his community safe even if that meant traveling to the deepest and furthest parts to apprehend a gang of thieves
—Good pick of the different rural locations in North India that looked intimidating, creating a fear of the unknown and unexpected
—We appreciated the camaraderie and solidarity between Sajan and his teammates. Alone in a foreign land, they kept strong despite the hardships
Bland
—Kuttavum Shikshayum, lamentably, lacked a parallel story; hence, we had to see the same officers from beginning to end.
We didn’t even have an insight into the officers’ personal lives outside the theft case; plus, the investigation became so extended that it was a bit challenging to concentrate.
When we thought the screenwriters were going to surprise us with some sizzling and gingery moments during the chase, we were only met with a casual chain of events
—Acting was ordinary, not exciting or engaging
—Kuttavum Shikshayum could have possessed stronger dialogues to make its point heard about the treatment of police officers
