Summary
When Parima, a school teacher in Delhi, is gang-raped on her way home late at night after an office party, Raavi, a prosecution lawyer, fights tooth and nail to help her get justice. But when eighty sexual assault cases are reported in India every single day, regardless of age group, ethnicity, time, or place, and only four go to trial, what does justice really mean?
Filmi puts it at 18+, and the CBFC certified it A.

Parents ask
Answered from the record below — the certificate, the board’s cut list, and what reviewers documented.
Is Assi OK for kids?
Filmi puts Assi at 18+ — suitable for 18 and over. The CBFC certified it A. That comes from the certificate and from what reviewers documented, not from anyone at Filmi watching the film — every claim on this page is quoted with its source.
What age is Assi suitable for?
18+, based on the CBFC rating of A. 5 of the five content-warning categories are documented for this film.
What content should parents know about in Assi?
What the record shows: violence — strong; language — mild; sex or nudity — strong; drink or drugs — mild; frightening scenes — strong. A category left blank means nobody documented it, not that the film is clean — the full record, quoted with sources, is on this page.
Did the censor board cut anything from Assi?
The CBFC certified it A with no published cut list. That is not the same as the film being uncut — only that no modification was published.
