How can I pass hidden field value from view to controller ASP.NET MVC 5?

Question

I am trying to pass hidden field value from view to controller by doing the following

@Html.HiddenFor(model => model.Articles.ArticleId) 

and also tried

<input type="hidden" id="ArticleId" name="ArticleId" value="@Model.Articles.ArticleId" />

On both instances the value of ArticleId is 0 but when i use TextboxFor i can see the correct ArticleId, please help

Here it is

View

@model ArticlesCommentsViewModel
....
@using (Html.BeginForm("Create", "Comments", FormMethod.Post))
{
<div class="row">
    <div class="col-xs-10 col-md-10 col-sm-10">
        <div class="form-group">
            @Html.LabelFor(model => model.Comments.Comment, new { @class = "control-label" })
            @Html.TextAreaFor(m => m.Comments.Comment, new { @class = "ckeditor" })
            @Html.ValidationMessageFor(m => m.Comments.Comment, null, new { @class = "text-danger"})
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

<div class="row">

        @*@Html.HiddenFor(model => model.Articles.ArticleId)*@
    <input type="hidden" id="ArticleId" name="ArticleId" value="@Model.Articles.ArticleId" />
</div>

<div class="row">
    <div class="col-xs-4 col-md-4 col-sm-4">
        <div class="form-group">
            <input type="submit" value="Post Comment" class="btn btn-primary" />
        </div>
    </div>
</div>
}

    public ActionResult Create(CommentsViewModel comments)//, int ArticleId)
    {
        var comment = new Comments
        {
            Comment = Server.HtmlEncode(comments.Comment),
            ArticleId = comments.ArticleId,
            CommentByUserId = User.Identity.GetUserId()
        };
    }
