After watching 'KGF Chapter 1', fans were so eager to see its sequel that the film became the fourth highest-grossing film of Indian cinema upon its release. Today Yash is one of the biggest names in Indian cinema and has his own unique style. There is a powerful aura associated with his name.
Now Yash is working with National Award winning director Geetu Mohandas in his next film 'Toxic'. Geetu's husband Rajeev Ravi himself is a good director and is the DOP of 'Toxic'. When so many creative people are at odds, can people put their opinion against a powerful person like Yash?
This is how the idea of the heart-touching mother scene in KGF came about.
Answering this question in an interview, Yash said, “He is ready to take ideas from even the smallest person on the set.” While saying this, he told that the idea of mother's heart touching scene came in 'Kaise Unke'. KGF Chapter 1′ and its idea was given by someone associated with the production.
Yash is ready for every new idea
Yash said, if everyone is honest towards the script then any creative differences can be resolved easily. Moreover, when mature people work together, things are not so difficult. Even though he has the power of stardom, he is just an actor in front of the camera and his director and cinematographer are the audience in front of him. That is why he always welcomes new ideas. I think I might have given a seat to the last assistant director too, so that he could come and say something. When you provide a space like this, how many times has it happened that people come and give us great ideas.
