Aditya Dhar marvels over the audience reception of Article 370

Aditya Dhar took to his X handle to share a glimpse of the roaring audience response to a keynote scene from Article 370. The director-producer expressed awe over the audience proving the makers "wrong". This comment came in respect of Dhar comparing the film's favour among the audience to that of his 2019 film Uri: The Surgical Strike which not only minted a formidable box office report, but also went on to be felicitated with four National Film Awards. 

The caption to the post read, "When URI happened we thought this might be the last time we would see a frenzy like this on one of our films. Will be very difficult for us to create something again that will match to the level of excitement that all of you showed during URI. Thank GOD You guys have proved us absolutely wrong!! What a brilliant response. Thank you so much for showering us with so much love! Really heartwarming for me and my entire team! Jai Hind!"
