If there was ever a story showing the thin line between love and hate, it would be Driving Licence.
On one end, we saw the magnitude of the inspector’s fanaticism, and on another, the intensity of hate. Driving Licence was a mind-blowing sensation with great lessons to learn from

Delicious
—A round of applause for the cinematographer and editor!! They were responsible for taking Driving Licence to higher heights with an extraordinary accent on color, lighting, and entertaining/versatile camera techniques
—What made Driving Licence special was the various characters; we weren’t just looking at two individuals who loved and hated each other, but other parties added many flavors.
For instance, there were a peculiar drunk and loud man without a sensible purpose, a cunning politician pulling the strings behind the scenes, and a wannabe film star.
The story also had an intentional goal to teach us about family values, the dangers of fanaticism, and respect for authorities
—Have to confess, seeing Prithviraj (playing Hareendran the celebrity) during the trailer wasn’t too exciting. We thought he’d deliver his usual carefree performance, but oh no…he surprised us by genuinely embracing the stardom and family man attitude.
Hats off to Adhish Praveen (playing Kuruvila’s son), this boy is a wonder😍
—Location, set design, and special effects teams, bravo👏
Bland
—A teeny tiny note: the lines delivered by Kuruvila (Suraj Venjarammoodu) and Hareendran towards the end were too long and preachy. They kept on talking and talking and talking…
