Saw Neerja last night. I don't remember the last time I cried so much during a movie! Such an amazing movie, I didn't know who Neerja Bhanot was before this movie. Right from the beginning, I was glued to the screen. I really liked how the director presented two different stories (Neerja's family life and the terrorist preparing) and then merged them together. The acting by everyone was phenomenal. Sonam, my oh my, I am so so impressed! I also really enjoyed Khalil's acting and found him kind of good looking. 😆

Anyway, 5/5 from me.

P.S.: As a Pakistani, there was LITERALLY nothing anti-Pakistani presented in the movie. Such a shame that it is banned.

I personally loved the singing bit. But that's just me. For me, I saw it as the terrorists taking away something Neerja loved (the song, Rajesh Khanna, singing) and turning it into something bitter. The emotions Sonam showed with the cracks in her voice showed Neerja's heartbreak so well.

Watched an interview where Sonam mentioned how she was so mentally exhausted during that scene that she literally couldn't stand and Jim was actually holding her from the back to keep her from falling and she was not supposed to cry the way she did and that's why at one point she sits down next to the kids while singing. Ram really has a different method of working.

Sonam is, and I think she agrees too, a directors actor and needs to work with more people like ROM and Ram and Aanand Rai and even Shashanka Ghosh. They get the best out of her.

#Neerja maintains tight grip. Passes 'Mon test' in Week 2 as well: Fri 3.15 cr, Sat 5 cr, Sun 6.65 cr, Mon 2.12 cr. Total: 52.24 cr. WOW!

Neerja Hits 50 Crore

Tuesday 01 March 2016 09.00 IST

Box Office India Trade Network

Neerja dropped 25-30% from its second Friday on its second Monday. The film has grossed 50 crore nett in 11 days. The second weekend business of Neerja is as follows

Friday - 2,75,00,000

Saturday - 4,75,00,000

Sunday - 6,00,00,000

Monday - 2,00,00,000

Total - 15,50,00,000

The second week business will go to around 21 crore nett and lifetime business of the film is looking to hit 70 crore nett for lifetime business

Nerja Second Weekend Business

Monday 29 February 2016 13.00 IST

Box Office India Trade Network

Neerja had a good second weekend where the nett collections were aided by Delhi city going tax free over the weekend. It means three of the 6/7 centres where the film is doing well are tax tree. The three centres being Mumbai city, Delhi city and Pune The second weekend business of Neerja is as follows

Friday - 2,75,00,000

Saturday - 4,75,00,000

Sunday - 6,00,00,000

Total - 13,50,00,000

The film has a tax free status is UP and Gujarat as well but has not been implemented. It will not make much difference also as barring a Noida (which is basically Delhi) the film has not found appreciation in all the other centres of UP and Gujarat.
