Moderate violence: a man sets a bus on fire, killing 23 people. A social drama built on three real 1990s tragedies — a caste massacre, a bus burning, a bombing — and uneven justice. Also moderate scary or upsetting scenes and mild substance use.

Summary

23 (Iravai Moodu) is a hard-hitting social drama that interweaves three gripping narratives inspired by real-life tragedies: the 1991 Tsunduru massacre, the 1993 Chilakaluripeta bus burning incident, and the 1997 Hyderabad car bomb blast. Bold, unflinching, and deeply thought-provoking, 23 serves as a powerful outcry for dignity, justice, and societal reform.

Filmi puts it at 16+, and the CBFC certified it U/A 16+.
