Article 370

The success of the film will indeed reflect the current mindset of my compatriots. Moreover, it's imperative to conduct some research before attending the film screening. A deep understanding of current affairs is not only essential but also indispensable. Additionally, I thoroughly enjoyed the film; it was both engaging and informative. If you, the reader, have been deeply moved by films like Uri, The Kashmir Files, The Kerala Story, and Sardar Udham, then I urge you to catch Article 370 at the next available showing. To conclude, the most striking and heartwarming moment for me was the display of the photograph frame featuring Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel and Netaji Subash Chandra Bose.

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

• fighting terrorists & separatists on the streets of Kashmir by our army & intelligence agencies
• Diplomatic battles that are fought in Parliament by Politicians.

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🙂!!

"Must see drama on why Kashmir was burning for so many years" is an essential cinematic exploration of the complex socio-political dynamics fueling the longstanding conflict in the region. Through its compelling narrative, the film delves deep into the manipulation of ordinary citizens by politicians, who exploit divisions based on religion, caste, and other identities for their own gain. It serves as a poignant reminder of the power struggles that have plagued Kashmir, shedding light on the human cost of political agendas and the desperate need for empathy and understanding amidst turmoil.

"Everyone should watch this" is not just a statement; it's a call to action for individuals to confront the harsh realities depicted in the film. As an eye-opener, it prompts viewers to reflect on the repercussions of systemic injustices and the consequences of apathy towards the suffering of others. By shining a spotlight on the plight of the common people caught in the crossfire of political machinations, the movie underscores the urgency of fostering dialogue, empathy, and genuine efforts towards peace and reconciliation in regions torn apart by conflict.

A review by Rajesh Puvvada

Setting aside political affiliations and opinions, the movie lives to the spirit of a making inspired by true events.

Article 370 as a movie is based on the events that unfolded between 2015 to 2019. The knotty parts of the article in the Indian constitution were untied smartly during this period and the way it was done is the movie all about. So if you assume that the movie is all about a verbal exchange of key leaders over a debate, you are grossly mistaken.

The movies balances between the interpretation of the constitution and a solid action of the NIA (National Investigation Agency) against terrorists and separatists. It's really interesting to see some sections of the article disappeared over the course of time. The movie handles this confusing and complicated part very well. Further, the tact of understanding and dealing with the power equations when changes are imposed to parts of the wider constitution was dealt with very well.

The movie reminds one about the fact that the ugly truth can't disappear forever someone will stumble upon it and justice will prevail even after 5 decades.

You will remain at the edge of the seat when pace builds at the valley and at the Indian parliament. The background score is heart thumping hence I will say you should watch this movie in the theatre.

Both Priya mani and Yami Gautam have played their parts unequivocally!! Arun Govil can't be ignored in the movie!!

I am going with a 8.5/10. You can safely take your entire family to this movie, but emotions will be felt only by the Baby Boomer till the Gen Y populace. Get to the truth soon!!

When the trailers for both 'Crakk' and 'Article 370' were released, I wasn't interested in watching either of them. However, my mind was changed after I saw the reviews on social media, with everyone praising the movie. So, I went and watched the movie, and my experience was good. I just want to tell you guys, don't miss the beginning of the movie. Ajay Devgan narrates and briefs everything through a short story. The movie is divided into chapters, with 6 in total, and I loved the 2nd, 3rd, and 6th ones. Chapter 6th gives you goosebumps when Mota Bhai presents the bill. The best part of the movie is the performances. Yami Gautam nailed the role she was portraying. I can easily say this is her best performance to date. Another great aspect of the movie is that it doesn't blame the opposition for the wrongdoings. Whatever your ideologies and political beliefs, keep them aside and go watch the movie.
