Parents ask
Answered from the record below — the certificate, the board’s cut list, and what reviewers documented.
Is Shikara OK for kids?
Filmi puts Shikara 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 Shikara suitable for?
12+, based on the CBFC rating of U/A. 3 of the five content-warning categories are documented for this film.
What content should parents know about in Shikara?
Documented so far: violence — moderate, sex or nudity — mild, 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 Shikara?
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.

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 tender romance set against the 1990 exodus of Kashmiri Pandits — displacement, loss of home, and PTSD-like trauma are described but not shown graphically. One scene suggests intimacy after marriage. Strongly about love and resilience.
