could anyone else have played Neerja - Page 3

Neerja is not a FICTIONAL character...she is a REAL person...and if her parents thought that Sonam Kapoor was their laado...then who the hell are we to speculate...nah not going to disrespect her parents' wish and Neerja by speculating on this one...somethings should be beyond the regular speculations and gossips.

Even Neerja's family embraced Sonam and think she did a great work. That's important to point out imo because Neerja's family didn't ask for a remuneration. Their only demand was that the movie does justice to Neerja.

AMEN AMEN AMEN to this!

"The moment Rama aunty saw me she said yeh toh meri laado hai (she is like my darling daughter)" AND "I got the best compliment from Neerja's brother Akhil Bhanot. He said that in certain parts I look exactly her like and sound exactly her like".

- Neerja Bhanot's families opinion is the only thing that matters in the casting of who played their daughter/sister.

Haven't watched the film yet, but so far have only read positive reviews, except for the one by Sneha May Francis who said that the makers should have cast someone else.

She looked a lot like NB
Also their voice had uncanny similarities
She was apt for this role! Very good casting choice.

Kangana would have ruined it by her dialogue delivery.no way
