‘Never seen a more hardworking actor’: Nayanthara on Yash

At the movie’s trailer launch in Bengaluru recently, actor Nayanthara had heaped praise on Yash, noting that he’s the most hardworking actor she has ever seen. “The first time I met Yash… I have worked with a lot of superstars and actors; everyone is big and cool. With Yash, when I first met him, the larger-than-life image he has is the same in person. I have never ever seen a more hardworking actor than him,” she said.

Nayanthara added, “Every single day on set, I was amazed at the way he worked. This man gave four and a half years of his life. He sacrificed his time with his family, his kids; he was just focused on work. I have never seen an actor take care of the director the way he did. I have so much love and respect for the actor, producer, and human being he is.”
