Congratulations to the entire Team of B62, Jio, Director, Producers, Cast and Crew for bringing this masterpiece for the viewers on such a crucial topic which a common man is ignorant about. This is a phenomenal movie production I have seen in recent times. This is not a regular romcom entertainment movie but instead touches on several serious subjects of national importance.
Article 370 has all the flavors for being a Political Thriller packed with Action, Drama and Emotions. This movie is not for the faint hearted. It will give you an adrenaline rush and heart thumping Patriotism sparkling throughout the movie. The movie is correctly paced and keeps the audience engaged. The heart misses a beat looking at the Pulwama attack and the depiction has been spot on. The depiction of the Kashmir valley has been very thorough and the credit goes to the Director Aditya for his exemplary role and judgment to get the best out of everyone. Spectacular display of fascist and radical muslims and the sequence of events and picturization. Music is on a high and the title track is fabulous. The script, dialogues are class apart with a good mix of English when required.
A big fan of Yami from "Vicky Donor". Her acting was the best I have ever seen. Her dialogue delivery and acting was so flawless, I can't think of anyone else who could have done justice to her character. Yami was so much into the character that I myself had tears in my eyes on multiple occasions looking at the depth of the emotions in the scene. Priya Mani was at her best as always. Raj Zutshi's role was pivotal for the completeness. Sumit excelled in his short role. The Rajya Sabha debate has been captured well stressing the important points of the constitution and the provisions and the legalities. Modi-Shah duo could have been better. End note of Kashmiriyat in safe hands now in a 370-free Jammu and Kashmir is worth a praise. The movie is based on facts and the Director did not make adjustments to sensationalize the storyline. This is sheer belief and talent. Would have loved to see the snow laden mountains during the course of the movie.
Special mention of Director Aditya on his debut movie who has done such an an outstanding role gluing all the pieces together and showcasing in a structured fashion. I enjoyed watching the movie and would recommend every Indian to watch it. This movie is not just a film, it’s a Journey with lots of twists and turns. Enjoy the ride. Jai Hind, Jai Bharat.
