Meanwhile, Thursday, in a video, Yash narrated an anecdote where he says, "There was a small village which was facing a situation of drought for quite some time so the villagers decided to have a prayer meet and people turned out in large numbers but there was one boy who turned out with an umbrella. Some called it overconfidence but eventually you know what that was - Faith. I am like that little boy who had the faith of witnessing this day. and I am in a situation where thankyou is big enough but still, I would like to thank each one of you from the bottom of my heart. On behalf of the entire KGF team, I would like to say that we are very grateful. I hope you are enjoying the film and continue enjoying it. In the end, I would like to say that guys your heart is my territory!"
