Yami Gautam Reacts To Critics Calling Article 370 A 'Propaganda'; Says 'You'll Never Be Able To Feel The Film...'

Yami Gautam is currently gearing up for the release of her upcoming highly-anticipated flick Article 370, which is all set to hit the theatres on February 23, 2024. The movie will be released a few weeks before the 2024 Indian general election. However, Yami recently responded to critics calling Article 370 a ‘propaganda’.

Yami Gautam Calls Out Critics Calling Article 370 A 'Propaganda'

In a conversation with the news agency PTI, Yami Gautam said, “If someone is calling it names… like ‘propaganda’, ‘jingoism’, and ‘chest-thumping’… Any section that goes into theatres already thinking or carrying a preconceived notion that this is what it’s about, you’ll never be able to feel or enjoy the film. There is no point justifying the film to them. I don’t think the audience thinks about these things. This film is for the majority of the audience and we make films for the audience.”

Earlier, at the trailer launch event of Article 370, Aditya Dhar had said, “I personally and seriously feel that the current government doesn’t need a small film like ours to win an election (smiles). They made Ram Mandir for us. It took us 500 years to get that. I don’t think they need us to get votes for them.”

“Article 370 has the right intent. The timing was decided a year or two ago because the release dates are selected after a conversation with the exhibitors and distributors. That’s how we decided upon this date. There was supposed to be another film in between, The Immortal Ashwatthama. It didn’t happen. By God’s grace, this is the best time we have and that’s how we are releasing the film,” he further added.
