Neerja (2016)
7/10
Anil Kapoor must be proud of his Daughter
25 February 2016
Neerja Bhanot is the youngest girl bestowed with ashok chakra,Posthumously.She died while saving passengers of Pam am flight from three hijackers at karachi airport.It's nice that bollywood is bringing obscure heroic-stories of Indians,airlift and now Neerja.

When the plane gets hijacked and chaos begins,neerjas daunting experience of her past failed marriage starts to appear while shifting from the current scenario to that,and sometimes with creative transitions matching continuity between the two scenarios.

Film's screenplay and taut editing filled the audiences with nervousness and apprehension till the hijack foiled by security personnel at last.Despite knowing the ending,that Neerja will going to be die,the sense of wait to reach the conclusion held nicely by Ram Madhvani(Director).

Hand-held camera-work suited completely,as in United93-hollywood film with almost the same subject.But its foolish to compare it with United93 as it was way better and an epic film.Performance of all protagonist are great but Abrar zaroor(Safrini,one of the terrorist) outperformed all.
