Yash's Mother Defends Star Status Before KGF
31 Aug
Summary
- Yash's mother affirmed his stardom in Kannada cinema pre-KGF.
- She highlighted films like Googly and Ramachari as proof.
- She countered remarks questioning Yash's career origins.
Yash's mother, Pushpa Arun Kumar, has firmly defended her son's pre-KGF stardom in Kannada cinema. She emphasized that Yash was already a successful actor in Karnataka before KGF: Chapter 1 propelled him to national fame. Pushpa cited films such as Googly, Drama, Mr. and Mrs. Ramachari, Gajakesari, and Santhu Straight Forward as evidence of his established popularity.
She countered remarks, implicitly referencing producer Allu Aravind's past question "Who was Yash before KGF?", by stating Yash was not a "terrorist" but a homegrown star. Pushpa highlighted Yash's journey from a non-film background, with his father being a KSRTC bus driver, to building a successful career through television and cinema.
Pushpa expressed that attempts are being made to suppress her son's career and spread propaganda against his latest film, Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups. She asserted that as long as Yash has audience support, no one can hinder his growth. Yash himself previously acknowledged a film's role in an actor's success while stressing that actors also contribute significantly to a film's performance.
