Kannada superstar Yash is currently gearing up for the release of his upcoming film KGF: Chapter 2. The pan-India film is all set to release worldwide on April 14. Yash along with the other cast of the film is leaving no stone unturned to promote the movie. Before KGF, Yash was not that popular among Bollywood fans. But the film made him a pan-India star and today he is popular not only in India but also overseas. The actor has a crazy fan base.

In an interview with Bollywood Life, when Yash was asked about how fans compare him with Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan, he said that he is a cinema kid and has grown up watching their films. He added, “So I would like to add that you know nothing is permanent here. I mean they are superstars and disrespecting them or comparing is not right. They all have been my inspiration to become an actor. They are the pillars of the industry”.

While talking about the craze of KGF in Hindi cinema, Yash said, “It was planned like that. We wanted to make a pan India film and I want that every film that gets released should be panned India and not Hindi cinema or Kannada cinema. SS Rajamouli sir started this and we continued. I hope to see more of such films being made”.
