What content should parents know about in Nayakan?

What the record shows: violence — moderate; language — not on record; sex or nudity — moderate; 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.
