Actor Yash's mother, Pushpa Arunkumar, has expressed her unwavering support for her son, emphasising that the KGF franchise was not the beginning of his rise to fame. Her response follows veteran producer Allu Aravind's old remark - "Who was Yash before KGF?

Yash's Mother Takes A Dig At Allu Aravind

Speaking at a recent press conference, Pushpa said that Yash had already established himself in Kannada cinema long before KGF made him a pan-Indian star. She addressed the matter without mentioning producer Allu Aravind.

Yash's mother said, "Before KGF, Yash delivered five back-to-back hits. So, if he is an ordinary person, a nobody as you claim, then why are you (the person concerned) threatened? He's not a terrorist."

Pushpa emphasised that Yash's ascent to pan-Indian popularity did not happen suddenly, citing his streak of successful films and years of hard effort.

"There is no need to ask who he was before KGF; he had delivered good films before it. Moreover, he was not born into wealth, unlike a few others. He is the son of a bus driver who rose to the top on his own. As a mother, I am proud of him," she added.
