The comparison of Yash bringing glory to the nation with MS Dhoni's lifting the World Cup for the nation is winning love from the netizens.
There are very rare moments that leave a strong imprint of their existence in history and are remembered for the ages. One such glorious moment for India was lifting the World Cup after 28 years in 2011 under the captaincy of MS Dhoni.
The same moment was witnessed with the release of Yash's KGF 2 which not only took the Kannada industry to the national level but also left a strong impression of Indian cinema on the global level. With the success of KGF 2, superstar Yash's craze spread like a wildfire across the nation and beyond national boundaries.
Looking at the larger picture, Yash is a name that holds all the credit to take the Kannada industry to the other level with the success of KGF 1 and 2 while showing the power of regional cinema to the world. This has certainly made the name of a regional industry make its mark on the global level and come to the notice of the masses. While the film played an important role in bringing back the huge crowd of the audience to the theaters, Yash predominantly introduced his character of Rocky Bhai which went on to become a household name while creating examples of its raging popularity across the nation.
The rise of Yash's unprecedented charm across the globe indeed has much relevance with MS Dhoni's winning the world cup for the nation as both of them made the name of India shine at the global level in their respective fields. This has certainly been recognized by the netizens who started to make noise on the social media universe while hailing Yash for bringing such magnificent glory to the nation with his films. Some of the netizen's comments read:
Mukerji parts ways with YRF’s Dhoom 4 after reported creative disagreements.
Decision said to be amicable, with Aditya Chopra and Ranbir Kapoor supportive.
Director shifts focus to Brahmastra: Part Two – Dev, expected to begin filming in 2026.
Filmmaker steps away from YRF’s action franchise
Filmmaker Ayan Mukerji has stepped away from Yash Raj Films’ (YRF) highly anticipated action project Dhoom 4, reportedly due to creative differences. According to Bollywood Hungama, Mukerji’s vision for the film did not align with the studio’s direction, prompting him to withdraw from the project.
Mukerji, who was in discussions to direct the next instalment of the hit franchise—expected to star Ranbir Kapoor—was said to have limited control over the script, which was reportedly written by Shridhar Raghavan. The director, best known for Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani and Brahmastra, was keen on shaping the film creatively rather than simply executing an existing plan.
A source quoted in the report said, “Ayan didn’t have much say in the screenplay and didn’t want to embark on another journey of just execution.”
Amicable parting after discussions with Aditya Chopra
Before stepping away, Mukerji is believed to have held several discussions with YRF head Aditya Chopra and actor Ranbir Kapoor. Both reportedly supported his decision, with insiders describing the split as “completely amicable.”
The director’s departure does not mark the end of Dhoom 4, as YRF plans to continue with the project under a new director. The studio may also reconsider casting options, despite earlier reports that Ranbir Kapoor had set aside dates for the film.
Focus returns to the Brahmastra universe
Following his exit from Dhoom 4, Mukerji has shifted attention back to his passion project—the Brahmastra series. The filmmaker is currently developing Brahmastra: Part Two – Dev, the sequel to the 2022 fantasy epic.
The film, initially expected to begin production earlier, is now likely to go on floors in 2026. Sources suggest Mukerji intends to expand the Astraverse with more depth in storytelling, combining elements of mythology, drama, and spectacle.
