Yash and Sanjay Dutt
On Friday, to mark Kannada actor Yash's 35th birthday, the makers unveiled the trailer of KGF: Chapter 2. Prashanth Neel's multilingual action thriller that also features Sanjay Dutt and Raveena Tandon Thadani. Hours before its launch, the teaser was leaked online, but it did not dampen the excitement of fans. The second part has taken the action element a notch higher. In one of the scenes, Yash is seen blowing up a row of cars with a machine gun, and then lighting a cigarette with the barrel of the gun. A section of netizens said they can't wait to see it in theatres.
Yash was a part of KGF Chapter 1 and both, the film and the actor garnered heaps of praises. KGF 1 released two years back in 2018 and after tasting a huge success at the box office, the film also did well on its television telecast.
Yash shared, "KGF 1 was a magnum opus in a way and a complete labour of love and ambition. We had many limitations with Chapter 1 and ambition was the fuel that drove us. The team worked really hard and the success that Chapter 1 received was needless to say, a massive gratification in every way. We have worked just as hard, if not more, in putting together KGF 2 and made the film bigger in scale. The success of Chapter 1 has empowered us to do better and we hope to please and entertain our existing audience and also widen the audience and fan base for KGF Chapter 2. The agenda is to entertain our audience."
On his role in Chapter 2 of KGF, Yash shared, "Chapter 1 was an introduction to Rocky, his personality, his world and his hunger to overcome his demons. In KGF 2, you will see some different shades to Rocky that you haven't seen before. It will be a bigger action-packed and emotional ride!"
