After Toxic, Yash steps away from KGF, plans directorial debut After Toxic, Yash has no plans of returning to the KGF franchise. Shocked as his fans may be to hear this, the superstar will not be doing another KGF film at least not for quite a while. In fact, and you heard it here first, Yash intends to direct a film next. According to a source very close to the actor, “Throughout Toxic, Yash was a very close collaborator with his director, Geetu Mohandas. You could almost say he was a co-director on the film. His input has gone into almost every sequence. But Yash won’t be taking any credit, as he considers Geetu Mohandas the true and rightful helmer of the project, while he sees himself as just another technician on the team. ”That equation may soon change. The next Yash starrer is likely to be directed by the superstar himself. He already has an idea for the project but prefers to speak about it only after Toxic releases.
