Parents should know
Moderate violence: fights break out and bones are broken. A village drama about a son torn between the city and his father's idli shop, with minimal violence, some second-half fighting, and themes of family and legacy. Also mild scary or upsetting scenes and mild bad language.

Answered from the record below — the certificate, the board’s cut list, and what reviewers documented.
Is Idli Kadai OK for kids?

What age is Idli Kadai suitable for?

10+, from the content record (the CBFC rated it U). 3 of the five content-warning categories are documented for this film.

What content should parents know about in Idli Kadai?

What the record shows: violence — moderate; language — mild; sex or nudity — not on record; drink or drugs — not on record; frightening scenes — mild. 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 Idli Kadai?

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.
