Rocking Star Yash shot to fame with KGF 1 & 2 throughout the country. By the time Yash got casted in KGF, he was a rising star in Sandalwood. Yash started with supporting roles but later became lead actor and scored one of the biggest grossers in Kannada Industry, Mr And Mrs Ramachari before KGF. All this is known to those who are familiar with Kannada films. But, none of his films got dubbed into other languages and due to this he was not popular in languages other than Kannada.

When Ravi Teja, was asked about one quality that he would love to steal from some of his fellow actors. His response to this question has since become a topic of heated discussion.
Ravi Teja mentioned that he would love to steal the dancing skills of Global Star Ram Charan and Thalapathy Vijay, as well as Prabhas's charismatic personality, even calling him a darling. However, when asked about Rocking star Yash, Ravi Teja stated that he had only seen Yash in KGF and considered himself lucky to have had the opportunity to work on a film like that.
This has irked Yash fans calling their Hero 'Lucky'. The clip from the interview went viral, triggering a social media war that involved fans of Yash and Ravi Teja. Knowing about Ravi Teja, he didn't meant anything bad about Yash. Yes, he is only known to people other than Kannada with KGF and it's a clear fact. Getting to work in something like KGF is definitely lucky. But, only luck won't get results too, Yash was rose to Rocky Bhai from a character actor.
