Yami Gautam Dhar,who played the lead in Article 370, got named best actress for her role. Mammootty and Kartik Aaryan ended up sharing the best actor honor, Mammootty for Bramayugam and Aaryan for Chandu Champion. And that's a rare thing, two actors splitting the same award across two completely different films. Jayaraj, who headed the central jury, announced the winners himself. He's not someone who does this every year, so it carried weight when he named Kalki 2898 AD as the best popular film for wholesome entertainment.
Article 370 didn't just win one category and fade out.It's now sitting at the top of a list that includes some genuinely big names from Malayalam and Hindi cinema this year.Kartik Aaryan sharing the stage with Mammootty says something about how wide the acting race got this time around.The film's win comes years after the actual political event it's based on,back in August 2019.
