Yash’s Tweet:

KGF aka Kolar Gold Fields (Chapter 1) is a story involving crime set in the ‘50s in Kolar District of Mysore, Karnataka and around the character Rocky played by Yash. The movie, according to reports, is the first Kannada movie ever to earn over Rs 200 crore worldwide. The shooting for Chapter 2 started earlier this month.

KGF: Chapter 1 was a hit at the box office and was very well received by the audience as well as the critics. In spite of releasing with Shah Rukh Khan’s Zero, the film gave a tough fight and raced ahead of it. It is the first Kannada film to cross Rs. 240 crore worldwide. The movie was released in 5 languages across the country and made money at the box office since the first day of its release. Chapter 2 is expected to go on floors soon as the makers have announced the project on 13th March.

KGF: Chapter 1 was one of the highly anticipated films of the year and is one of the biggest blockbusters of 2018. Lead actors Srinidhi Shetty and Yash will reprise their roles in the second part as they were seen during the inauguration event of the second movie. KGF: Chapter 1 concluded with Rocky (Yash) going against the mine lords. The second part will take off from there and dive deeper into the story. Directed by Prashanth Neel, there are reports that actor Sanjay Dutt will be part of KGF: Chapter 2. Also, actor Raveena Tandon is said to sign the film reportedly but there is no such confirmation officially.
