Journey of Love 18+ is a 2023 Indian Malayalam-language coming-of-age comedy drama film directed by Arun D. Jose. The film stars Naslen K. Gafoor, alongside Mathew Thomas, Nikhila Vimal and Binu Pappu. Set in North Malabar, the plot follows Akhil and Athira's affair and the situations they face after their elopement and marriage. Principal photography commenced on 20 January 2023 in Vadakara. The film was released on 7 July 2023 and this movie was an average hit at box office. Plot 2009: Athira is the daughter of Raveendran, a political party's local secretary. She is in love with Akhil, a party worker. Athira calls Akhil one day and says she is ready to come with him. Akhil discusses the matter with his close friends, Renju and Pattar. Renju suggests that they should go and meet Rajesh, a tipper driver who eloped and married. Akhil, Renju, and Pattar go to Rajesh's house and ask for help. Rajesh initially refuses to help them after learning Akhil's relationship is with the local secretary's daughter, but subsequently decides to help them. Rajesh suggests to Akhil and his friends that the wedding should be arranged in a temple in Taliparamba, which will cost some money. On the occasion of a human chain organized by the local political party, a fully charged mobile phone battery is handed over to Athira by Pattar as per Rajesh's instruction. Akhil approaches his mother for money for the wedding, which she arranges through a bid. A strike led by Athira's elder brother Arjun to the BSNL office turns violent, and the party declares a 24-hour hartal. Akhil and his friends meet Rajesh to talk about the preparations for the wedding, and Rajesh instructs them to make all necessary arrangements as quickly as possible. On the day of the hartal, Akhil and his friends organize the wedding saree, blouse, and thaali. At night, Akhil arrives at Athira's house without anyone knowing and takes her along with Ranju and Pattar, who were waiting outside with a car. The next day, Akhil and Athira get married at a temple in Taliparamba with Rajesh's help. Akhil's father tells him to stay away for a few days. Rajesh suggests to Akhil and his friends that they should temporarily move to Mookambika for two days. After checking into a hotel, Rajesh receives a call about the death of Athira's grandmother, and everyone decides to go to Athira's house. Raveendran beats Akhil and makes a scene after seeing his eloped daughter with him. Rajesh helps Athira, Akhil, Renju, and Pattar escape. At Akhil's request, Rajesh takes them to Akhil's aunt's house in Kuttiady. Upon a missing case filed by Athira's family, police locate and present Akhil and Athira in court. Rajesh finds advocate Satish to plead for Akhil and Athira in court. Satish submits the photograph and the temple register as proof of marriage. However, Raveendran's lawyer proves that Athira is not 18 years old by producing her SSLC certificate. Satish checks the certificate and says that Athira will turn 18 in 5 days. Sony, the judicial magistrate, orders Athira to be taken to the children's home as she expresses her disinterest to return home. Raveendran's lawyer reminds Arjun that once Athira reaches the age of 18, the court will allow them to live together, and Akhil should be stopped from reaching court. The police arrive at Akhil's house to arrest him in connection with a bus burning case. But Akhil's friend and party worker, Deepak, takes responsibility for it. Before the case is heard in court, Raveendran makes some attempts to convince Athira to change her mind. Athira acts as if she agrees to everything. When the hearing of the case begins, Athira tells Sony that she wishes to go with Akhil and discloses her father's statement regarding Akhil's caste. As Athira has turned 18, the court accepts her decision to go with Akhil. Meanwhile, Akhil's younger brother plans to elope with his lover and marry once he turns 18.

Praveen of The Hindu wrote "Director Arun D. Jose cannot muster up any chemistry between the lead pair, while the politics in the film is merely a prop except at a few points." Princy Alexander of Onmanorama wrote "Overall, the film has a good, youthful vibe. However, it is not as free-flowing as its predecessors of the same genre, like 'Thanneer Mathan Dinangal', among others." Subhash K. Jha of Times Now gave 3 out of 5 stars and wrote "For a film about a recycled Romeo & Juliet, Journey Of Love 18+ is a surprisingly reposeful film. A slap here and an abuse there, but otherwise the lovers face no major hurdles even during the climax when, traditionally, all hell should have broken loose." A critic of The Times of India gave 3 out of 5 stars. Raymond John Kuriachan of OTTPlay gave 3 out of 5 stars and wrote "Despite its familiar template, Naslen and Meenakshi's Journey of Love 18+ succeeds in becoming a light-hearted comedy." Arjun Ramachandran of The South First gave 3 out of 5 stars and wrote "The Naslen and Meenakshi-starrer is vocal about political parties, their double standards, infightings, and caste politics." Vignesh Madhu of Cinema Express gave 3.5 out of 5 stars and wrote "At a time when mediocre thrillers and vapid feel-good dramas are a dime a dozen in Malayalam cinema, such well-packaged fun films are indeed a breath of fresh air."
