South star Yash, known for films like K.G.F: Chapter 1, Santhu Straight Forward, Gajakesari, among others, has just completed shooting for his schedule of K.G.F: Chapter 2. While film shoots have resumed amid COVID-19 keeping the guidelines in mind, it's certainly a lot different and difficult to shoot amid the pandemic.


A source from Prashanth Neel's KGF: Chapter 2 informed Bollywood Hungama, "It is very difficult for Yash to follow the COVID-19 guidelines when he is shooting complicated action sequences with dozens of junior artistes and with mud and fake blood all over his body. Yes, it was risky."


The source added, "So after completing his schedule which ended on 19 December, Yash immediately got himself tested for COVID-19 and moved into his permanent suite at the Taj Hotel. Only after the report came and Yash had tested negative, did he allow his wife and two children to visit him."


Apparently, Yash not only got himself, but also his entire film crew tested. "They all have families to go to just like me. Their families are as much vulnerable to the pandemic infection as my family, and just as valuable," said the actor.

Recently, director Prashanth Neel announced that the teaser of KGF Chapter 2 will be unveiled on January 8, 2021. KGF Chapter 2 is a multilingual venture, and will be released in Kannada, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Hindi. The upcoming film also stars Sanjay Dutt and Raveena Tandon.
