Parents ask
Answered from the record below — the certificate, the board’s cut list, and what reviewers documented.
Is Psycho OK for kids?
Filmi puts Psycho at 18+ — suitable for 18 and over. The CBFC certified it 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 Psycho suitable for?
18+, based on the CBFC rating of A. 4 of the five content-warning categories are documented for this film.
What content should parents know about in Psycho?
Documented so far: violence — strong, language — moderate, sex or nudity — strong, 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 Psycho?
The CBFC certified it 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 graphic serial-killer thriller with beheadings, blood, and nudity; women's dialogue includes cursing. Critics call parts of it disturbing and warn it's not for the faint-hearted; the story also tries to humanise its killer.
