Yash Responds to Rashmika, Allu Aravind Comments Ahead of Toxic Release
· Entertainment · Indian Express, Times of India
Actor Yash, who is preparing to release the film Toxic on 17 August 2026 after a four‑year break, addressed past controversies involving Rashmika Mandanna and producer Allu Aravind. He said on the television talk show Aap Ki Adalat that he still does not know why Rashmika called him “Mr Showoff” in a 2017 rapid‑fire segment and that the remark is merely an opinion that does not alter his identity. Yash criticised the format of such TV shows for forcing celebrities to answer on impulse, describing them as “rubbish TV shows.” He also noted that Allu Aravind had spoken about his pre‑KGF stardom, though the article does not provide Aravind’s full remarks. Yash reaffirmed that “whoever loves me and knows me will still recognise me unchanged,” and he remains focused on his upcoming project in Kochi cinema markets.
