Ever since its release on 14 April 2022, KGF: Chapter 2 has been the talk of the town and topic of discussion. Its impact has been so massive that it is unavoidable. The film went on to break multiple records all the while creating its own along the way. This pan-Indian sensation was written and directed by Prashanth Neel and stars Rocking Star Yash, Srinidhi Shetty, Sanjay Dutt, Raveena Tandon, and Prakash Raj. The film gained traction immediately after the release of its first installment, KGF: Chapter 1, and took off from there.

The film has been well appreciated by audiences and critics alike. But that is not all. It is also recognized by a number of famous personalities such as Shilpa Shetty, Ram Charan, Allu Arjun, and even Superstar Rajinikanth himself among many others. Now, director Shankar too has joined that bandwagon of people. After watching the movie himself, he took his opinions to his official Twitter handle and commended the film for how it was made, appreciated Yash for his mass portrayal of Rocky Bhai and finally thanked Prashanth Neel for delivering such a film. He wrote, "Finally saw #KGF2 Cutting edge data-style Storytelling,Screenplay&Editing.Bold move to intercut action&dialogue,worked beautifully.Revamped Style of Mass 4 the powerhouse @TheNameIsYash Thanks Dir @prashanth_neel 4 giving us a “periyappa” experience. @anbariv Terrific💥👏💐to the Team"
