“Played by Adah Sharma with unblinking purpose verging on psychosis, Neerja epitomises <director> Sudipto Sen’s vision of what needs to be done to crush Communism. Are you done, Neerja is asked in the middle of a fiery speech in which she is lambasting a minister. I haven’t even begun, she barks. And so it goes on for 124 minutes.”
