MUMBAI: Last year was indeed remarkable for actress Yami Gautam Dhar. While the audience has seen her portray various nuanced characters, she has consistently delivered top-notch performances. With each film, she has elevated her craft, and Article 370, released last year, added yet another feather to her cap. Today, as the film completes one year, it is worth reflecting on the significant impact it left, with Yami’s performance being its standout performer - a year that belonged to her with the box office success with the film that was hailed as ‘film of the year’.
Article 370 revolves around an intelligence agent who, after an incident in Kashmir, is selected for a secret mission by the Prime Minister’s joint secretary to combat terrorism by rendering Article 370 ineffective. This political action thriller left a distinct impact, and Yami’s stellar performance only amplified its effect. As NIA agent Zooni Haksar, she was perfectly suited for the role, bringing depth and conviction to her character.
She posted on Instagram. " Rarely does a film come along with a story so powerful, so unbelievable, yet so real, that being a part of it feels like a privilege.
#Article370 is more than just a film—it’s a story that needed to be told, and I am truly honored to have played a part in it. This is a film the country will remember. 🇮🇳✨

With her outstanding performance in Article 370, Yami emerged as the female performer of the year, making this film one of the best of the year. She truly shined as a solo lead, further cementing her place as a powerhouse performer who has singlehandedly shouldered strong, content-driven films like A Thursday, Dasvi, Lost, and now Article 370. Not just that, with Chor Nikal Ke Bhaga and Dhoom Dhaam added to her body of work, she proved her unique ability of delivering hits - from thrillers to pure entertainers.
Yami’s performance became the stand-out performance of the year, as she received widespread praise for her commendable acting. Critics lauded her portrayal, while audiences from all corners showered her with appreciation such that, people already are rooting for a national award. It is indeed commendable to see an actress make such a strong impact with her performance in a hard-hitting political drama, leaving everyone talking about her talent. What a stellar trajectory for Yami with successes across platforms - big screen to OTT!
