The producer of the film Atul Kasbekar opened up on the same stating, “About the profit of the film, all the financial transactions after the release were immediately shared with the Bhanot family. The share of the profit was also offered to them, but they declined for the same, now they wish to get the share of studio profits.” Atul added, “I am very proud that Bhanot family trusted us on making the movie. It was a very difficult task for us. Finally, we made the film with pure honesty and after watching the film’s success, I can say, we succeeded.” Neerja was based on the life of Neerja Bhanot, who gave up her life while fighting with the hijackers at Karachi International airport. Her brother Aneesh Bhanot said that they will not make any statement regarding this, right now but they will not tolerate injustice.
