Watch out for the actors who play the terrorists (especially Khalil), for they do a great job in getting the emotions of the characters across, be it their frustration and anger with the officials, or their confusion when they realize that Neerja has outdone them in more ways than one. The supporting cast also gives a splendid performance with Shabana Azmi nailing her role as Neerja’s mother. She carries it entirely on her shoulders and makes you truly believe “ Zindagi Badi Honi Chahiye, Lambi Nahi”. The film is a milestone in Sonam’s career, being a treat for her fans, and leaving everyone who doubted her acting skills speechless (well, almost). How does she act in the following hours, and what is it that makes her gather the courage to save hundreds of lives? But her world turns upside down when four armed men hijack her plane at Karachi International Airport, and she is left in charge of the flight as the pilots escape after she informs them about the situation. An air hostess and model by profession, she is more than happy to be Head Purser to Pan Am 73 for the first time. The story starts with Neerja’s (Sonam Kapoor) society party. An ordinary girl with an extraordinary heart, she saved the lives of the many people who would probably have died had it not been for her courage, prevented the success of the mission of a group of terrorists, and gave up her life for a bunch of people she hardly knew in the process.

Most of us to proclaim to be critical thinkers, strong-headed, and calm in our interviews and on our résumés, but can we really be composed enough to think rationally when our life is in danger? Probably not.
