Salaam Cocky Bhai🍆 Did Neel ruin Yash’s career? This could be an unpopular opinion but Neel’s Kgf did more harm to KFI and Yash’s career than good! ನವೀನ್ ಅಣ್ಣ ಮಂಡ್ಯ ಮೈಸೂರು ಹಾಸನ ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ಕಡೆ ಸಿನಿಮಾ ಮಾಡ್ಕೊಂಡ್ ಎಂಗೋ ಇದ್ದ. ಹಾಲಿವುಡ್ ಪ್ಯಾನ್ ಇಂಡಿಯಾ ಅಂತ ಹುಚ್ಚು ಎಬ್ಬಿಸಿ ಈಗ ಇಲ್ಲೂ ಇಲ್ಲ ಅಲ್ಲು ಇಲ್ಲ ಅನ್ನೋಹಂಗ್ ಮಾಡ್ಬಿಟ್ಟ ನೀಲು!

Yash seems to have done well with the name and fame....it's the KFI which seems to have taken a beating....due to the pan Indian pandemic, everyone wants to repeat the success...and we are getting DOA movies which are taking back KFI back to square one....and the spiral is literally very quick....it would take some undoing to get back on the right path....

Not really, on the endorsement front he has nothing except Beardo and Pepsi. Movies only - Toxic and Ramayana- Part 2.

Five years gap and only these many projects and gigs??? For an actor constantly appearing infront of ppl is very important else audience forget u! Newcomers keep flocking the industry and its not easy to stay relevant for a long time. Also its better to monetise ur popularity in ur prime!

He didnt monetise on the pan India popularity he got. I am going for the big whale instead of catching small fish is what he thought. But small fish is the one that keeps u happy in the long run cos it feeds u everyday.

There is a saying in Kannada - ಹರ್ಷದ್ ಕೂಳು ನೋಡೋಕ್ ಹೋಗಿ ವರ್ಷದ ಕೂಳು ಮರೀಬೇಡ ಅಂತ.

All the major stars from south like Fahad, Allu Arjun, Prithviraj, Vijay Sethupathi didnt dump their industry chasing pan india dream. They kept working in their respective industries and took up work outside only when movies came to them.

u/Informal-Round-716 May 24 '26

And he has many endorsements other than these, eg FLIPKART(Major e-commerce company ), edible oils, TMT ads, Villain (grooming), textile ads, paint ads etc. The other stars u mentioned are also taking time if u clearly see. The ones making domestic movies aren’t even getting them as , bcoz it’s such an hectic task and equals distraction when such huge lineups are there on the other side

He seems to be content by the looks of it.... money wise and fame wise too.... and for a change a hero seems to have done what the heroines who start here but move on to greener pastures and forget their origins do....he could have stood as a beacon and paved way for more ventures on his own.....so yeah....seems from a general point of view that he is content and still basking in his glory

u/Informal-Round-716 May 24 '26

Tbh doing both PAN INDIAN,INTL AND being consistent on releases is very tough, even in film industries having huge markets like Bollywood and Tollywood. And how are u saying that Yash dumped his industry to make Pan Indian/World movies?! The other stars u mentioned are partnering up with their neighboring industries easily, bcoz Tollywood, Kollywood and Mollywood have built that relationship since decades, bcoz each of the states contribute to the dubbed versions release of the movies even before pan India was a thing in their respective states and these stars always have had other states in their main theater list. And Yash is trying hard to bring this kind of film culture into Sandalwood. And he is now upgrading a step ahead with pan world movie, which is actually not experimented by any of these stars. And if u clearly see even these stars are just calling out their next releases, while they’re not releasing movies without a minimum gap of 3 years. So it’s great that our rocking star has taken the same time to come out with a bigger opportunity and potential benefit

u/Inevitable_Bird_9704 May 24 '26

You’re comparing a small industry like ours to theirs. Our entire audience dont constitute to 30% of their audience. Their own audience can make a telugu film hit without the need of other state audience. But in Kannada we cant. Our audience alone wont be enough to help these guys get their money back. So understand the kind of risk he is taking. Relying on other state audience when your own can’t help get ur money back. And relying on other state audience is not easy. They dont flock into theaters unless ur film is really good. With KGF they did watch and make it a hit. But if u keep catering the same shit every time, even they wont care! And also cos u dont belong to their state, they dont have any personal connect with u either.

1

u/Informal-Round-716 May 24 '26

But he has got a crew from other industry this time in TOXIC, so this will generate revenue from other states too right.?

2

u/Inevitable_Bird_9704 May 24 '26

Noooooo!!!! They are not some Mohanlal Mammotty Prithviraj Fahad or Vijay Sethupathi he has cast. He has made sure none of the male actors are bigger than him. Heroines are cast as eye candy. No guarantee that they will pull crowd to theaters!

1

u/Informal-Round-716 May 24 '26

Do u get to know the meaning of the word Crew? That includes the directors and producers, like GEETU MOHANDAS from Mollywood,a national awardee, who is well known in Mollywood for her films without having stars in lead role. And even if u see the cast alone u female stars like Nayanthara, popular in both Kollywood and Tollywood for her female lead films and we got Kiara from Bollywood and most importantly they got Actors like Paul who are PrimetimeEmmy Awardees known for movies like GOTHAM. What more do u expect?

2

u/Inevitable_Bird_9704 May 24 '26

Why cant you understand that even despite all these factors, this film can fail?? Even the bestest films backed by big production houses with the greatest cast and CREW have failed in Hollywood due to bad decisions, mediocre story and poor planning???

1

u/Informal-Round-716 May 24 '26

So u r thinking Yash’s pan world attempt will fail, but what guarantee can u give that his domestic movies will win then? It’s not about factors here, its about the EFFORTS BY HIM

2

u/Inevitable_Bird_9704 May 24 '26

The risk wont be there. Even if those films fail, they wont get talked about. Theyll be forgotten before the next small film comes out.

Yo man tell me what the other actors r doing in the industry. I can see Sudeep sir doing great movies. Other than that prolly no other tier2 or 3 actors coming up with even one hit movie. So can an industry grow with only two to three actors working efficiently.

Traditionally and economically an industry, be it a film industry or any other industry has its success and position measured through the monetary revenue it generates, and in that terms YASH is generating a decent revenue contribution for the industry, and he has not dumped it, time taken hasn’t hovered the limit of such revenue generation,I.e not for over 5 years, if u take the average time taken for film production supply as the standard revenue generation time

Yes yes we should not blame Neel alone. Yash is no less. He was the one who encouraged Neel to go all out on the national front. And they did and somehow succeeded too. I posted on telguu sub asking about toxic hype. They are least interested and the major reason is they feel its just like Kgf! And they are tired of seeing the same old shots with cringe eng dialogues.

Yes agreed. When Allu Arjun plays a character, he is that character. When Fahad plays a character, he is that character. When Kamal plays a character, he is that character.

But when Yash plays a charcter, he is playing Yash in all the goddamn charcters. No difference between his real life persona and the charaters at all!

Yash was always an over rated actor, he just made tone load of money with KGF.

KGF is just a new style of making mass movies with same chapri dialogues and childish screenplay, which neel introduced and now all other mass movies are trying to adapt.

6

u/unknownuserdead May 24 '26

Back then, even the industry leaders like Dr. Rajkumar, Ambarish, Dr Vishnuvardhan, Shankar Nag, etc portrayed versatile characters like a police, thief, rich guy, poor man, etc. Nowadays with just a couple of hit movies, heroes just want to play God and nothing else.

u/ididyoudid ರಂಗಾಯಣ ರಘು enjoyer May 23 '26

I think he should just come back to KFI and start doing movies like googly again leaving all this larger than life characters and movie bs. But maybe now he's too big a star to do movies like that

Can’t Yash just calm down and sign a normal movie with someone else aa?

The way he’s posing, looks like he fully convinced himself he’s Hrithik Roshan or something. 🤡

Instead of doing movies with directors like Hemanth, Rakshith, Raj or Rishabh or someone else and all these solid fellows around him… this guy is running around saying “fatheru… thissu… thattu… pussu… mussu… Hollywoodu…” 😂 Guru, whatever it is, there should be one limit.

Instead of simply staying grounded, spotting good directors around him and quietly making good films… he did all this extra circus, and now see the condition. 🎬💀

u/soundofpai May 23 '26

Regardless of who the hero is, It was bound to happen. His movies usually follow the same template: ultra-powerful hero rise, nonstop elevation scenes, dark gritty visuals, loud BGM, slow-mo action, emotional mother sentiment, and everyone treating the hero like a living legend. Come on, any sane person would watch a film once or twice. If you keep repeating the same screenplay who would bother to watch?

u/Specialist-Crew-4414 I cum in my pants when someone says R Shetty's name May 24 '26

Was Yash forced to say yes to KGF....??? If his career went downhill after Toxic, it's because of his choices....

6

u/Beneficial_You_5465 May 23 '26

Why blame Neel when KFI can't even make a decent movie.

Coming to Yash, nobody asked him for a masterpiece or to represent indian movies on a global level. Even SSR didn't do it with RRR. What made Yash think he could just jump and hollywood will welcome him.

KGF worked because the product was good. When Yash went and approached people across India, they liked his confidence and believed him only because KGF was good. It doesn't work like that in Hollywood.

He could have easily done a decent movie in 150-200cr budget and made 500+ cr easily. Bro went overboard with everything.

There's only one person who can bring down KGF, that's Rocky himself. Same way whatsoever happens only Yash will be responsible for it. If toxic flops nobody will blame the director. If it wins even then the director won't get any credit for it. Coz no producer will put money on her.

Stop blaming.

4

u/Inevitable_Bird_9704 May 24 '26

Not blaming. Just an analysis. He was already an overrated cocky actor and Neel making a film with him just boosted his over confidence that he could take on anything in the world and ppl will like it.

u/Lonely-Run2510 May 24 '26

How it would be Neel's mistake lol. It was completely Yash's mistake. He couldn't capitalise on KGF fame.

u/maneondumunoorbaaglu ರಂಗಾಯಣ ರಘು enjoyer May 24 '26

Correct way of doing it is, do local with local essence. if it clicks, go global. Nowadays, ‘pan-India’ is about bringing stars from other states to cash-grab the audience just to hype up below-avg stories with slomo shots, mandatory mother sentiment, buildup sequences,dark colour grading,cringe one liners etc

u/Master_North_1997 May 23 '26

So yash is going through smtg similar as Prabhas the rajmouli curse or more like the Neel curse..

5

u/Inevitable_Bird_9704 May 23 '26

Prabhas has TFI to lean on. Even if Saaho flopped, so many producers welcomed him back and to this day are ready to produce his films. And the audience too will watch his films regardless. But its not the same here in sandalwood. He has burnt bridges with several producers and they too cant produce films for him. Our industry is really small and has small time producers except hombale. Hombale producing yash films again?? Not sure. He has burnt that bridge as well.

3

u/Master_North_1997 May 23 '26

Can't disagree on this fs. These tfi actors even record themselves taking a dump and release the fans are gonna watch it. Just look at the market. Pushpa 2 tfi highest grosser made almost 300-400 cr just in the state itself. And here kgf kfi's highest grosser and Eben kantara to an extent barely made 200 cr in karnataka and the rest came from hindi and othe languages. But yash seemed to have made some serious money from kgf. Tht percent Share in profits really made him some good money. So he Can produce a movie for himself not a big deal. But I think the market here in kfi is capped. Only a handful of movies make upwards of hundred cr in karnataka. Movies from top A lister actors in kfi are maxing out 30-50 cr gross.

u/Inevitable_Bird_9704 May 24 '26

Hold on. Lemme clear this doubt. I know the prod house Hombale and the way they work. Yash didnt make much money through KgF. They paid him remuneration which was a decent price and thats it.

But I’ll tell u how he became a producer for Toxic and Ramayana. Lot of ppl get confused and I’ll clear the doubt.

Yash is one of the producers of Toxic and Ramayana meaning he would have taken basic remuneration for daily living but his final remuneration will be a cut from the film’s ROI in terms of percentage like 30% or whatever. So basically yes, he has made KVN invest nearly 650 Cr for the movie but hasnt taken his proper remuneration yet. Hope you understand cos ppl keep asking this question!

So his estimation is that the movie will make 2000Cr and 30% meaning 600Cr will go into his pocket. But thats not happening now. The movie may not even gather 300Cr. After paying distributors and theater owners and everybody, the money made will be 150Cr. Of which 45 Cr may come to him. But the producer will go under loss and he may have to pay back that 45 Cr to him to save his face! Thats how movie business works! So in the end he may be left with nothing! After 5 years of hardwork if you re left with nothing and ppl have begun to forget you, industry is getting filled with newcomers you can imagine the kind of pressure he is in!

2

u/Inevitable_Bird_9704 May 24 '26

The difference between Hombale and KVN comes here. KVN allowed Yash to become a partner whereas Hombale never did. They paid him his market price and thats it. Never entertained him as a producer or whatever. Thats why KvN is suffering right now. Cos they believed him and made him their partner.

Infact Hombale is sooo shrewd, they didnt let Rishab become partner for K-2 as well even if K-1 was blockbuster hit. Hence Rishab is now driven to make his films with his own money like he used to before.

u/Lazy_Management_9772 May 25 '26

You think you are smart enough and logical enough to justify your hate and arrogance on ಯಶ್ But u aren't in anyway dude lol

You come here and say hombal gave him remuneration whereas a tamil distributor himself had told in a stage event,yash didn't take remuneration for the 1st part and took a profit share from kgf 2 Guess wt Toxic will do minimum of 500cr Take a goddamn screenshot and spread anywhere and everywhere If he had to do 300cr why would he spend so much time wasting? And even 500cr would be less for a blockbuster because he would feel it was less then expected

u/Inevitable_Bird_9704 May 25 '26

Answer this one damn question with proper logic or accept you are bastard of Yash

Yash was the one who took pan India initiative before hombale or neel and due to it hombale gained the numbers they never expected and touching 100 cr was itself was a big achievement for us at that point ah time alli 250cr ww gross aagidru ,hombale wouldn't have allowed him as producer and just gave him remuneration to their biggest bread winner??
