Parents ask
Answered from the record below — the certificate, the board’s cut list, and what reviewers documented.
Is Chhapaak OK for kids?
Filmi puts Chhapaak at all ages — suitable for everyone. The CBFC certified it U. 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 Chhapaak suitable for?
All ages, based on the CBFC rating of U. 3 of the five content-warning categories are documented for this film.
What content should parents know about in Chhapaak?
Documented so far: violence — 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 Chhapaak?
The CBFC certified it U with no published cut list. That is not the same as the film being uncut — only that no modification was published.

Parent note
A true story of an acid-attack survivor's recovery and fight for justice. The attack scene is graphic and unflinching, and critics call it hard to watch. Themes of courage and support networks are strong; brief social drinking appears once.
