Posthumously, she became the youngest recipient of India’s highest peacetime military award for bravery, the Ashok Chakra.
Mind blowing actress Sonam is ready to flaunt her versatility by stepping into the shoes of Neerja Bhanot. The actress in the trailer is seen as a simple and confident girl. Sonam has ditched her high fashion avatar and has donned a grounded and poised image for the character. Looking promising in the shoes of the character Sonam seems to be excellent in her Neerja Bhanot role.
The trailer is mind triggering with the snapshots of Neerja’s way of life, the trailer initiates with reports of the hijack and proceeds to Sonam’s character of Neerja. Complimenting Sonam Kapooris senior talent bundle Shabana Azmi. Veteran star Shabana Azmi will be seen playing the role of Neerja’s mother. The trailer gives us a glimpse of the simple girl Neerja who is unaware of the drastic turn her life is going to take. The hijack scene is shown partly but is gripping by all means.
