Parents ask
Answered from the record below — the certificate, the board’s cut list, and what reviewers documented.
Is Talvar OK for kids?
Filmi puts Talvar 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 Talvar suitable for?
12+, based on the CBFC rating of U/A. 4 of the five content-warning categories are documented for this film.
What content should parents know about in Talvar?
Documented so far: violence — moderate, sex or nudity — mild, drink or drugs — 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 Talvar?
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
Based on the real Aarushi Talwar case: a teenage girl and servant are murdered, her parents accused. The investigation is grim and emotionally difficult to watch; one officer drinks secretly. No graphic violence or sex depicted.
