This Friday, the entire country will revisit the selfless bravery of a 23-year-old flight attendant named Neerja Bhanot, who lost her life in a pursuit to save 361 passengers and 19 crew members of the Pan Am Flight 73 which was hijacked by the Abu Nidal terrorists in Karachi, Pakistan in1986.
Neerja Bhanot’s story has been made into a film titled Neerja, with Bollywood’s fashionista and actress Sonam Kapoor playing the titular role. The other day, the film’s premiere was held for several B’town celebrities and they were all dumbstruck with the film’s emotional catharsis.
Especially, Aamir Khan and Hrithik Roshan were so moved by the film that they walked out of the theaters with a lump in their throat and tears running down from their eyes.
While Aamir said he was moved by Shabana Azmi’s role of Neerja’s mother, Hrithik said, “I can’t remember the last time I cried this much in a film. It is really emotional, it hits you.”
