KGF Chapter 2 is a sequel to 2018 hit KGF, which made Yash a phenomenon across the country.
In a recent interaction with indianexpress.com, Yash spoke about how he believed in KGF and director Prashanth Neel.

Here’s another photo of Yash. (Photo: PR Handout) “I know it is going to be better (than KGF: Chapter 1). When we came here for the first time, Baahubali was projected in a different way — it was a mythological period film with the biggest budget tag, and it was directed by Rajamouli sir. But when we came, we came with the content even though we were new. I used to say how we are like the Lagaan team. Our intention was very clear. We had come to win, but we didn’t have many resources. When I saw my director’s work, I pushed it. He didn’t believe me then. He thought he had not done enough for the rest of the market. He thought we had to do better, but I was so impressed with his work that I was very confident. With a lot of difficulty I had to convince him to take KGF to India, and once we went out, we went full out,” he said.
Besides Yash, KGF 2 also stars Sanjay Dutt, Srinidhi Shetty, Raveena Tandon and Prakash Raj. The film is set to release in theatres on April 14.
