Critic consensus
Critical reception for Article 370 is mixed-to-moderate, with most reviewers awarding scores in the 60-70 range. The performances of Yami Gautam and Priya Mani are the most consistently praised element across reviews, with several critics singling them out as the film's primary strength. The most common criticism centers on the film's one-sided political perspective, with multiple reviewers noting it presents only the government's viewpoint on the abrogation of Article 370 and omits Kashmiri voices, leading some to label it propaganda. A few critics also flagged narrative unevenness and a textbook, straightforward approach to its subject matter.

Film review
Mixing facts with fiction, and some convenient untruths, Article 370 presents the government of the day's scrapping of the special status of Jammu and Kashmir as a masterclass in State craft. However, from the encounter of Burhan Wani to the Balakot strike, Article 370 offers us only one perspective on an issue that continues to defy simple answers.

ARTICLE 370 is a gripping tale
Film review ·
Yami Gautam and Priya Mani's flawless acts elevate Aditya Suhas Jambhale's Article 370, a smartly-made but uneven political thriller.
Film review ·
The film is a cracker of an action film and if one doesn't dwell on its political stance much, can be thoroughly enjoyed as an action thriller. Yami Gautam Dhar plays Zooni Haksar with the emotional depth the character deserves, investing lots of angst and sorrow in her character, and she's the only heroine perhaps who held a gun properly in films.
Film review ·
Article 370 might not be as crisp and slick as Uri: The Surgical Strike but it still manages to leave a mark. Yami Gautam Dhar and Priya Mani are impressive.
Film review ·
‘Article 370’ proves to be a worthwhile watch, offering enough substance to keep viewers engaged and invested.
Film review ·
No chest thumping patriotism, Yami Gautam and Priyamani’s Article 370’s movie is an engaging and emotional political-action thriller.
Film review ·
Some of the unconvincing theories about the Kashmiri movement for autonomy in the film will make you want to read up on its actual history. We guess that's what the PM meant when he said that 'Article 370' will be ‘useful for people to get correct information’.
Film review ·
Aditya clearly has the vision to tell a factual story but in a very textbook manner. Article 370 is an absolutely essential film but if you are expecting a thrilling take on Kashmir and its infamous history, then you might be a tad bit disappointed.

Another thinly veiled propaganda film
Film review
The makers' confusion about whether it's fiction or based on real incidents! But why is the movie based in and on Kashmir missing the voice of its people? The makers deny that it's a propaganda film, but anyone with a neutral and fair perspective can smell the underlying intention of the film.
Film review ·
Article 370 stars Yami Gautam and Priyamani as the two forces driving this intense narrative. The film informs, educates and keeps you invested for most part.
