But before we get to the list, let us first understand what makes a movie family-friendly in India.

Film Certification in India

In India, movies are certified by the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC), which is a statutory body under the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting. Under the rules of the Cinematograph Act of 1952, the CBFC regulates the public show of films. Films can be publicly exhibited in India only after they have been certified by the CBFC.

The CBFC currently issues four certificates for films:

U: Unrestricted public exhibition. These are family-friendly movies that can be watched by anyone, regardless of age. They may contain universal themes like education, family, drama, romance, sci-fi, action, etc. Also, they may contain some mild violence, but it cannot be prolonged. They may also contain very mild sexual scenes (without any traces of nudity or sexual detail).
U/A: Unrestricted public exhibition with parental guidance for children below 12 years. These movies can contain moderate adult themes that are not strong and are not considered appropriate for young children. These movies may contain moderate to strong violence, moderate sexual scenes (traces of nudity and moderate sexual detail can be found), frightening scenes, blood flow, or muted abusive language.
A: Restricted to adults (18+). These are movies that can contain strong violence, explicit and strong sexual scenes, and abusive language, but words that insult or degrade women or any social group and nudity are not allowed. Some disputable and adult subjects are deemed inappropriate for young audiences.
S: Specialized audiences, such as physicians or scientists, are only allowed. These are movies that cannot be viewed by the general public and are meant for specific purposes or professions.

For this article, we will focus on the movies that have been certified as U by the CBFC, as they are suitable for family viewing.
