‘Article 370’ revolves around the character played by Yami Gautam, an intelligence officer entrusted with safeguarding the nation amidst political upheaval. The film promises audiences a gripping narrative filled with intrigue, political tension, and high-octane action sequences. Directed by Aaditya Suhas Jambhale, the movie boasts a talented ensemble cast, including Arun Govil and Vaibhav Tatwawadi.
In addition to the film’s recognition, Yami Gautam also made headlines for announcing her pregnancy during the trailer launch event of ‘Article 370’. Despite the challenges of shooting while pregnant, Yami commended her husband, Aditya Dhar, for his unwavering support and credited her mother for inspiring her during this journey.
Yami said, “There were doctors on sets who were secretly looking after me and were making sure that I was cautious all the time. I could not have done it if not for Aditya. I’ve also learnt a lot of it from my mother because I’ve heard stories of how she was in charge of everything when she was carrying me.”
She added, “It was mentally draining. I could write thesis on it. There are so many questions, the firsts are always challenging. If you ask me about motherhood and everything coming together, I really don’t know what I would have done had Aditya not been there by my side.”
As ‘Article 370’ prepares for its release on February 23, the film continues to garner attention for its timely subject matter and stellar cast. With PM Modi’s mention amplifying its significance, the anticipation for the movie’s release is palpable. Yami Gautam’s pregnancy announcement further adds to the excitement surrounding the film, showcasing her dedication to her craft amidst personal milestones.
Quoting PM Modi, “I have heard that a film on Article 370 is going to be released this week. It is a good thing as it will help people get correct information.”
