Parents ask

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

Filmi puts Neerja at 12+ — suitable for 12 and over. The CBFC certified it U/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 Neerja suitable for?

12+, based on the CBFC rating of U/A. 2 of the five content-warning categories are documented for this film.

What content should parents know about in Neerja?

Documented so far: violence — moderate, 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 Neerja?

The CBFC certified it U/A with no published cut list. That is not the same as the film being uncut — only that no modification was published.

Parent note
A biopic of Neerja Bhanot, the flight attendant killed protecting passengers during a 1986 hijacking. Shows hijackers' violence and a shooting death, plus her abusive marriage in flashback. Critics call her courage deeply inspiring.
