Fundamental Rights Explained In A Simple Yet Hard Hitting Way
Article 15 is an important film that highlights an essential and fundamental subject and is a good follow up film to Mulk by Anubhav Sinha. It stops short of being a great film, nevertheless the output is definitely well worth the visit to the cinemas this weekend.(more)

Ayushmann Khurrana film makes you uncomfortable
Article 15 might be rough around the edges and might have its fair share of flaws with regard to storytelling, but it is indeed a film to be watched. It's a start. It cannot change society but it at least can initiate a conversation and debate that examines the horrors that lurk in this very society, invisible to our privileged eyes.(more)

Ayushmann Khurrana's Film is Important, Powerful and Superbly Made
Article 15 isn't just an important film, it's a powerful one and it's superbly made. It comes at you all kicking and screaming, but this is a film that justifies its tone. Don't miss it. I'm going with four out of five. It'll rattle your core.(more)

Making the invisible visible
To make films which topline these subjects is a way of getting us to talk, and, in an ideal world, start some kind of a push-back against injustice and oppression, things we have dangerously begun taking for granted. Article 15 may have an unsatisfactory element or two, but as a film, it rushes in to reclaim the grounds we have ceded. It is what is needed� a clarion call, a bugle, a calling-out� all rolled in one.(more)

Entertaining social drama
What Anubhav Sinha must accept is that he intuitively knows what this easily satiated audience, with its simplistic definitions, does not know: That Freedom is not a Protest Rap. Freedom is a Sad Ballad.(more)

Ayushmann Khurrana hunts for inconvenient truths in an essential film
Article 15 is not a film in search of easy answers. It is instead a reminder that we already know the questions, but don't ask them enough. Not cool, sir.(more)

Wild, wild heartland
Article 15 might be Ayan's film but it's Nishad's tale that needs to be told urgently now as an accompanying piece. Days after watching the film the lasting image is that of Ayyub as Nishad, twirling his moustache like Chandra Shekhar Azad, saying "hum akhiri thode na hain". He is not the last one to take on the oppression in this on-going hard fought battle.(more)

Ayushmann Khurrana's Bitter Pill With Just A Hint Of Sugar Coating
Sinha draws many of its plot elements from newspaper headlines of recent years, the principal one related to the 2014 Badaun gangrape and killing of two girls and the 2016 Una flogging of Dalit men and employs them methodically to probe caste and gender fissures and fault lines. It remains true to the demands of the plot without losing control over its principal purpose - administering a bitter pill with just a hint of a sugar coating. It works wonderfully well. Article 15 is a not to be missed film.(more)

Ayushmann Khurrana's Thriller Pens Intrigue Around Information!
Article 15 makes a very strong statement without sugarcoating any facts. It screams what's wrong, now who can hear it, that really depends on what kind of life you're living. Another gem for Ayushmann Khurrana (after Andhadhun & Badhaai Ho) & Anubhav Sinha (after Mulk). A shocking yet necessary watch!(more)

ARTICLE 15 is a hard-hitting film that raises some important issues related to caste, that are plaguing the country.
ARTICLE 15 has created a buzz also because he's there in the film and he ensures he doesn't disappoint his fans and admirers. Manoj Pahwa leaves a huge mark. Anubhav Sinha extracts the best from him � last year he rocked in MULK � and now with this flick, he yet again impresses(more)
