Rajat Sharma asks Yash about pan-India stars, sparks debate

TV host Rajat Sharma, on his show Aap Ki Adalat, asked actor Yash how he became a pan-India star while actors like Allu Arjun and Ram Charan, from film families, could not achieve the same recognition. Greatandhra.com reports that Sharma's question appeared to intentionally provoke South Indian star fans, noting that Allu Arjun and Ram Charan are already established pan-India stars through films like Pushpa and RRR.

Yash responded that a pan-India image can disappear after one bad Friday. 123telugu.com reports that Yash's comments have gone viral on social media, with fans of the mentioned actors trolling him. Greatandhra.com criticised Yash for missing an opportunity to acknowledge the pan-India success of Allu Arjun and Ram Charan, and for not rising above a North-versus-South comparison.
