After KGF, Yash’s Next Is To Be Directed by Narthan

Even as  the sequel  to KGF wraps up shooting and readies for  a Summer 2021 release,  Kannada superstar Yash  has moved  on to his  next  project.

That’s right.  Yash has zeroed on  in  his next project. And it’s going to be  a slick action thriller directed by Narthan who,  like Prashant Neel when he  was elected to direct KGF, is relatively new.Narthan  has earlier  directed  a highly acclaimed khaki-coloured action film Mufti in  2017 which  was a  big Kannada hit.

Says a  source  very  close to Yash, “Yash was very impressed  by Narthan  and asked Narthan  to write a film for him. Narthan brought a couple of scripts  for Yash.But somehow  they lacked that  ‘IT’ quality which  Yash was  looking for after KGF. Narthan has now  written  a  script which is just what Yash wanted  to  do after  KGF. It is  slick and contemporary with terrific action pieces.”

As  for  the  KGF director Prashanth  moving on to Prabhas for  his next, the  source says, “After spending three years together  both Prashanth and  Yash needed a  break from one another. Just like Yash was  impressed with Prashanth’s script when  he brought KGF to Yash,  so too with Narthan whose script has  bowled Yash over.It’s  time to  create another  magic.”
