Happy birthday Yash: KGF star Yash, who turned 37 on January 8, is a popular actor across the country. Like Shah Rukh Khan, the self-made superstar also began his journey through television. After spending a few years in television, he became the lead actor with Moggina Manasu in 2008. He has never looked back since.
Even before KGF: Chapter 2 was released, Yash had told his fans that KGF would make the Kannada film industry proud. Once the film was released, it broke all records and Yash became a household name beyond the borders of Karnataka. His good looks and screen presence made him a people’s hero and changed the face of Kannada cinema forever.
We have curated Yash’s six must-watch films for his newly minted fans.
