Army Day is observed annually on January 15 in India, commemorating Lieutenant General Kodandera M. Cariappa's appointment as the first Commander-in-Chief of the Indian Army, succeeding General Francis Roy Bucher, the last British Commander-in-Chief of India, on this day in 1949.
This day is dedicated to recognizing the brave soldiers who have laid down their lives for the security of the nation and its citizens.
In regard to "Article 370," the film is helmed by Aditya Suhas Jambhale and features Yami alongside Priyamani, Skand Thakur, Ashwini Kaul, Vaibhav Tatwawadi, Arun Govil, and Kiran Karmarkar.
The narrative revolves around the 2019 abrogation of the special status of Jammu and Kashmir under Article 370 of the Constitution of India.
Recently, Yami also appeared in "Haq," a courtroom drama directed by Suparn Verma, featuring Emraan Hashmi and Sheeba Chaddha. This film draws inspiration from the landmark Supreme Court ruling of Mohd. Ahmed Khan v. Shah Bano Begum, focusing on matrimonial issues within Muslim families.
The film reportedly incorporates elements from journalist Jigna Vora's book "Bano: Bharat ki Beti" and has faced pre-release legal challenges concerning its depiction of the Shah Bano case.
Yami is married to filmmaker Aditya Dhar, who recently directed the blockbuster "Dhurandhar," a star-studded saga based on remarkable true events. The film, steeped in the underworld's gritty narrative infused with Indian patriotism, features a mix of action, betrayal, and espionage.
Notable cast members include Akshaye Khanna, Ranveer Singh, Arjun Rampal, R. Madhavan, and Sanjay Dutt.
The plot is loosely inspired by Operation Lyari, a government-led initiative against local gangs and crime syndicates in Karachi, Pakistan.
