Yash is one of the biggest superstars in the nation and his KGF franchise is only setting the benchmark higher and higher. Being high is success and losing control is quite unsurprising but looks like Yash his parents to ‘put him in his place’. We sat down for a candid chat with KGF : Chapter 2 star Yash where he revealed exclusively to Bollywood Bubble that his parents in fact did not want him to be an actor at all.
Yash said that coming from a humble background his parents were skeptical if he would survive in the industry and let him go on only one condition, Yash told Bollywood Bubble that his parents were quite happy with his stardom but also worried, “They are happy because they never wanted me to get into this stream. In fact, they tried to stop me They were a little scared. Coming from a middle-class background and from a small town, they were not sure if this was a good thing for their son. So they always told cinema is very complicated’, ‘you can’t get in’, ‘it is very difficult’ all of that was there.
The actor continued, “But they had also supported me when I was participating in dance competitions or theatre activities and all of that so somewhere they’re happy but at the same time they were scared. But then it all boils down to how badly you want to achieve or how badly you want to be that. Then they couldn’t stop me, they said, “Accha chalo, bigad gaya toh bigad gaya.’ They said ‘Ok go, but if you come back, we will never let you go again.’ They thought I’ll come back but I didn’t”

When we asked if they are happy now, Yash said, “They are very happy. Of course, it doesn’t mean that anything has changed. They still think that I am not smart enough to take decisions or they think I have to be more disciplined. Parents are parents, doesn’t matter if your son is an actor or an engineer they will always criticize and that is also I think important because they tell you where you come from, they keep reminding you. They put you in your place.”
