"I really enjoyed this phase of balancing my work and I had to shoot the film also, all action portions were shot before.

Dhar confirmed the news by saying, "We will get to know that if it's gonna be Laxmi or a Ganesha....there's a baby on the way. It was an amazing time because the way the film happened and the way we got to know about the baby honestly, it almost felt like..wo Abhimanyu waali story yaad aa gyi (it reminded me of Abhimanyu's story).

Yami Gautam on working with Aditya Dhar post marriage
The actress earlier spoke about working with Dhar after her marriage. She said: "I was asked several times after URI: The Surgical Strike and after marriage when we would collaborate. It was always about the right script at the right time, with the right opportunity. I feel thankful to Aditya that Article 370 came my way."
She continued, "Aditya has always believed in talent, doing an anti-cast, empowering talent, and creating opportunities to reap more. I thank him and Lokesh Bhaiyya (Dhar, producer of the film) for being great producers. Both brothers started their production company B62 Films with this film. Article 370 is a very important film for us as people who belong to the cinema, and personally as family."
Dhar and Yami worked on the 2019 action war film URI which turned out to be a major success. The duo then started seeing each other and got married in 2021.
Article 370 is produced by Jyoti Deshpande, Aditya Dhar, and Lokesh Dhar, and helmed by Aditya Suhas Jambhale. It marks the second collaboration between Aditya and Yami after URI. The film will be released theatrically on February 23rd, 2024 and it is set in the backdrop of the abrogation of Article 370 which gave a special status to Jammu and Kashmir.
