'Article 370' banned in Gulf countries

It has been reported that Yami Gautam's latest film, 'Article 370', has been banned in Gulf countries. This comes as a surprise as the film has been received well by audiences and critics alike, and has performed well both domestically and internationally. No official explanation has been provided by the certification board for this ban.

The ban is particularly concerning given the popularity of Indian cinema in the region and the thriving tourism industry. This is not the first time that a Bollywood film has been banned in Gulf countries, with Hrithik Roshan and Deepika Padukone's 'Fighter' also facing a similar fate in all Gulf nations except the UAE.

In 'Article 370', Yami Gautam plays the role of Zooni Haksar, an intelligence officer, in a story set against the backdrop of the valley. The film revolves around the revocation of Article 370 and the special status of Jammu and Kashmir.

During an address in Jammu, Prime Minister Narendra Modi expressed his anticipation for the release of the film, highlighting its potential to provide accurate information on the subject. The film is directed by Aditya Suhas Jambhale and features Priyamani, Arun Govil, and Kiran Karmarkar.
