Talaash
Contains hard drug use, moderate violence and sex references
violence
There is some moderate violence, including a scene in which a man is shot three times in the chest by another man. In another scene, a sniper is seen shooting a long range target in the head, albeit without sight of blood.
sex
There are a number of moderate sex references, mainly relating to the underworld of prostitution in Mumbai. One of the key characters is a female prostitute who talks about her profession. For example she says "AIDS is bad for business", "He's a pimp" and "You'll always be a whore's lame son". These verbal references are accompanied by undetailed sight of brothels and brothel owners, as well as other sex workers. However, there is no nudity and no portrayal of sexual activity. There is brief sight of a DVD shop with the sign 'Hot Movies' displayed above some DVD covers showing women in bikinis.
drugs
The opening titles show a character heating a piece of foil containing opium or heroin and inhaling the drug.
additional issues
The film contains some mild bad language (e.g. 'bloody', 'bullshit', 'shit').
