Parents ask
Answered from the record below — the certificate, the board’s cut list, and what reviewers documented.
Is Dude OK for kids?
Filmi puts Dude at 16+ — suitable for 16 and over. The CBFC certified it U/A 16+. 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 Dude suitable for?
16+, based on the CBFC rating of U/A 16+. 4 of the five content-warning categories are documented for this film.
What content should parents know about in Dude?
Documented so far: violence — moderate, language — none documented, sex or nudity — none documented, frightening scenes — moderate. 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 Dude?
The CBFC certified it U/A 16+ with no published cut list. That is not the same as the film being uncut — only that no modification was published.
Seen it with your kids?
What age would you say?
You have watched it, they have not. What is the youngest age you would sit next to? The board puts it at 16+; your pick joins a parents’ number that sits beside it and never replaces it.

Public, beside your note. Needed once you write words; an age pick alone needs none.
Saved. One more thing, if you like — your kids’ ages.
Set once, and your vote shows other parents which ages it came from. Kept on your account; only the ages travel with your vote.

Parent note
A Gen Z rom-com about two childhood friends navigating love, family expectations and a caste-based subplot handled lightly. Critics note a self-sacrificing hero, a brief fight scene, and say there's no swearing or adult content.
