Despite receiving mixed reviews, ‘Article 370’ managed to hold its ground at the box office, partly attributed to its release coinciding with ‘Cinema Lovers Day,’ offering discounted ticket prices at Rs 99. Prime Minister Narendra Modi also referenced the film in a rally in Jammu on February 20, stating its significance in providing accurate information to the audience.

Directed by Aditya Suhas Jambhale and produced by Aditya Dhar and B62 Studios, the film also features Kiran Karmarkar and Arun Govil in pivotal roles. The film delves into the anti-terrorism operations carried out in Kashmir subsequent to the removal of Article 370.
