Featured reviews
Kudos to the young director and producers! This a masterpiece. Fast paced, well written and brilliantly performed by all actors. The film highlights role played by security forces and bureaucrats in this critical move. Not a single dull moment. The story revolves around security forces deployed in Kashmir. First half focuses on the challenges faced by security forces deployed in Kashmir, the second half shows the meticulous preparation done by bureaucracy and security forces before abrogation of article 370.
Yami has given her career best. Special mention of young director for his debut film, he has directed it like a seasoned one.

Film Review: Article 370 currently screening in theatres!!
Inspired by true events, this film is about Article 370 in Kashmir, its incorporation, political manipulation & finally its abrogation in August 2019.
Two female protagonists in thick of things are Yami Gautam as a feisty Intelligence Officer Zooni Haksar & Priyamani as Rajeshwari Swaminathan, a determined Deputy Secretary to the PMO.
The abrogation process happens on 2 fronts
Both Yami Gautam & Priyamani play characters with totally different personalities with Yami playing an NIA officer with a volatile personality, while Priyamani essays the part of a seasoned bureaucrat with a cool & calm demeanor. Both are brilliant and have aced their parts totally !!
Apart from the protagonists above , Raj Zutshi as the separatist leader Jalal breezes through his role with diabolical zeal . Divya Seth as Mehbooba Mufti , a quiet manipulative politician, Arun Govil as PM Modi, Kiran Karmakar as Amit Shah & Vaibhav Tatwawadi's performances too deserve appreciation.
Direction by Aditya Suhas Jambhale is great, narrative is fast paced and will keep u engrossed all throughout. The first half sets the precedence for the adrenaline rush action that happens in the 2nd half. Some creative liberties have been taken in the end which are justified.
Saw a lot of happy faces while coming out of the cinema hall 🙂. Great watch .. go for it!!
Going with 3.5/5 for this one .. Adios🙂!!

The abrogation process happens on 2 fronts
- fighting terrorists & separatists on the streets of Kashmir by our army & intelligence agencies
- Diplomatic battles that are fought in Parliament by Politicians.

Hats off to the director. They have covered all angles around Article 370 - political, legal, economical, social and security - all in 2.5 hours.
Great performances by Yami Gautam, Kiran Karmarkar and Arun Govil. The movie starts around 2015 seperatist insurgency and shows all important events in the valley in timeline upto the abrogation of Article 370 in August 2019.
The legal complications and intrepretations on the abrogation which not a lot of people are aware about, are also covered in the film on a surface level.
There are no masala dialogues or songs, and movie is gripping to the end through great acting, screenplay, bgm and direction.
Watch this with your family in cinemas.

Family friendly, good for general population.
Recommended for Students preparing for competitive exams, it will be a good revision.
This is loosely based on Political Events before and during abrogation of Article 370. Apart from Terrorists, character's real names are changed or avoided.
Some events are summarised and simplified, some events are dramatised and some events (example- gun fight during climax of movie) was frictional.
This is not a Documentary and rulling party achieved its promise in election manifesto so some people will brand it as propaganda however it's not that.
It's more like your enthusiastic Uncle telling you how difficult was the process with some events out of order/not included and some events frictional to wrap up the story.
Absolute banger BGM, about 19 minutes the movie becomes technical rest of movie is easy to follow.
Great Acting from Actors in both positive and negetive roles.

What remains today in kashmir valley after a long bloodbath for more than 70 years is peace.
Article 370 presents an incredible true story of the events that lead to the demolishing of article 370.
Article 370 was not just a political gimmick or a normal law in a constitution but it was an act to keep kashmir and it's people away from India.
Aditya Dhar produced starring Yami gautam and directed by Aditya Jambhale is aperfect example of how to create a movie that consists of a political drama perfectly blended with a thrill of spy movie. Performances by the entire cast specially Yami takes movie to another level.
But the fact that the show stealer of this political drama is it's crisp editing, sound mixing and brilliant score. Technicalities are in level to what we saw with Uri and that makes it even spectacular. Screenplay is top notch, even the best part considering the fact that Kashmir and article 370 needs to be handled with a special care in which it s writer and director have succeeded comfortably.
There are few scenes which are a bit dramatic in a whole realistic movie but that doesn't make this movie go off the track.
It's a must watch movie, A masterpiece of bollywood in political drama genre.
