Mumbai, July 19: Filmmaker Aditya Dhar expressed his gratitude after receiving three National Awards for his film ‘Article 370.’ Recently, he directed ‘Dhurandhar: The Revenge.’
The film ‘Article 370’ dominated the National Awards, winning accolades for Best Music, Best Actress, and Best Feature Film.
Aditya shared a heartfelt message on the social media platform X. He stated, “Winning three National Awards for ‘Article 370’ is a moment that is hard to put into words. It fills me with immense pride, deep emotion, and gratitude. When we started making this film, our goal was not to chase awards. We were driven by a strong belief to tell a story with honesty, courage, and integrity. It is truly touching to see that audiences across the country have embraced this journey, and now it is being honored with the highest accolades in Indian cinema.”
He further expressed, “I am sincerely grateful to the esteemed jury for this incredible honor and to everyone who watched, supported, debated, and believed in ‘Article 370.’ Your love has given this film a life beyond the screen. This recognition is also for our extraordinary director Aditya Suhas Jambhale, whose vision shaped every scene. Yami Gautam Dhar and Priyamani brought depth, strength, and authenticity to their performances. Eternal Sachdev’s music became the soul of our film. Every member of our cast and crew, whose relentless hard work, passion, and belief made the impossible possible, deserves this honor.”
Jyoti Deshpande, Chairperson of Jio Studios, remarked, “Winning three National Awards for ‘Article 370’ is an emotional moment for all of us at Jio Studios.

My heartfelt thanks to the esteemed jury and to every viewer who embraced, discussed, and supported ‘Article 370.’ This honor belongs to our remarkable director Aditya Suhas Jambhale, whose vision never wavered. Yami Gautam Dhar, who brought honesty and emotional depth to her performance, and Eternal Sachdev, whose music became the heartbeat of the film, also deserve recognition.”
