Yash Didn’t Repeat Rishab’s Mistake

One of the biggest highlights from the Toxic pre-release event in Hyderabad was Rockstar Yash’s Telugu speech. Throughout his speech, Yash spoke in Telugu and thus won the hearts of Telugu audience. The Kannada star spoke completely in Telugu and used warm and concerning and respectful words while addressing the huge crowd. He clearly understood the importance of the Telugu market and made a genuine effort to connect with the audience.

This is where Yash avoided a situation that Rishab Shetty faced during the Kantara Chapter 1 promotions. Rishab spoke mainly in Kannada at a Telugu event, which led to criticism and unnecessary negativity among a section of the Telugu audience.

Yash made sure there was no such room for complaints. His Telugu speech, interaction with the crowd and overall approach fully won the hearts of the audience.

The presence of a large number of Malla Reddy University students also added huge energy to the event. The crowd response made the Hyderabad event look lively throughout.

However, when there was an unfortunate incident, the collapse of a huge sound-box set-up, Yash immediately paused his speech. He ordered event authorities to immediately rush to check whether everyone is safe.

It’s not an exaggeration to say that the Telugu event created a bigger impact than the Kannada event. The response from the students and fans, along with Yash’s speech, helped create strong positive buzz for Toxic.

For a film that is targeting a huge pan-India audience, this kind of connection with the Telugu audience can be very important. Yash seems to have understood that clearly and handled the Telugu event smartly.

Overall, the Toxic pre-release event in Hyderabad went smoothly, despite a minor unfortunate incident where two students were injured when a huge sound box setup collapsed. One of the students, a girl student, fell unconscious. The students were rushed to hospital. More details are awaited.
