About Article 370

Yami plays the role of an intelligence officer Zooni Haksar. Set entirely in the scenic backdrop of Jammu and Kashmir, the film is based on the landmark revocation of Article 370, which guaranteed special constitutional privileges to the erstwhile state. The trailer of the film depicted the emergence of terrorism in the region, with radicals seeking to seize control of the area.

Yami’s character joined the NIA and is given free rein to carry out a mission in Kashmir. The government has also promised to eliminate Article 370. Apart from Yami, the film also stars Priyamani, Arun Govil and Kiran Karmarkar in lead roles. Article 370 is backed by Jio Studios and Aditya Dhar’s banner B62 Studios. The drama is “inspired by true events that shaped the fate of Kashmir”.

Article 370 not banned in Gulf countries

After reporting that the film was banned in Gulf countries, news agency ANI has now said it hasn’t been banned. Citing sources, in a new report, it said that in certain Gulf countries, the film awaits certification.

Yami on Monday had said the cast and the makers had “full faith” in the film finding favour with the audience. Revealing that the makers were told that such films may not find too many takers, the actor said, “We were told that this film may not find success at the box office as viewers do not appreciate such subjects.”
