While Bollywood biopics have the tendency to put masala in stories of real life personalities, Neerja thankfully avoids that! If Neerja was a hero in real life, Ram Madhvani is the real hero of the film. The biggest positive I can say about the film, and I would want to say right at the start itself, the film never lets down the spirit of Neerja Bhanot. Neerja Review by Sreeju Sudhakaran on Bollywood Life The scenes of her troubled past, in which she walks away from an abusive arranged marriage, are juxtaposed well with the hijack drama. With hardly any sign of self-indulgence, Kapoor gives a real spin to the hijack ordeal. There’s no razzle-dazzle or swanky designer clothes to distract us from her performance and that’s a good thing. She earnestly tries to recreate Bhanot’s fateful encounter with armed Palestinian terrorists. Neerja Review by Manjusha Radhakrishnan on Gulfnews Shabana Azmi nails it in that last scene. But these are small hiccups in a film that besides telling an inspiring, fearless story briefly comments on the need to bring up our daughters as fearlessly as we bring up our sons. It tends to get a bit slow and manipulative in between. Neerja Review by Lokesh Dharmani on Masala

NEERJA is a movie that will make you a better person. Most importantly as a movie watching experience, you’ll be glued to the movie screen with tears and admiration welling up in your eyes. It is a film that will make you stand up for what’s genuinely Right without bothering about nationality, religion, sex, cast or colour of the skin. NEERJA is a must watch ode to the youngest recipient of the highest civilian honour Ashok Chakra for displaying extraordinary courage and human kindness. The pacing of the 2-hour long film is just right, giving the audience enough time to both digest the proceedings and get involved in the narrative. Neerja is not a film that you watch for entertainment, it’s a depressing watch because a story where a 23 year old sacrifices her life to defend passengers on board her plane, is deeply tragic and heart-wrenching.

With Neerja, director Ram Madhavani gives us a film that is grim and hard-hitting, real and terrifying.

Sonam Kapoor's look in the movie highly resembled Neerja Bhanot's look which made it easier for the audience to connect with the movie. Apart from Sonam's performance, Jim Sarbh's performance was equally lauded by everyone.Įverything from acting to looks made the movie very realistic for the audience. Sonam Kapoor garnered a lot of appreciation from not only critics but also the audiences for the role. The film Neerja is a biopic based on the life of Neerja Bhanot, a 22-year-old Indian flight attendant who died while saving passengers on Pan Am Flight 73 which had been hijacked by terrorists during a stopover in Karachi, Pakistan, on September 5, 1986.
