New Delhi: KGF star Yash asked supporters to desist from flying flags, pursuing motorcycles, and taking risky photographs, following the deaths of his three electrocuted fans. The actor made a financial commitment to the families of those who lost loved ones after visiting them when speaking with the media. On Monday, Yash celebrated his 38th birthday.

Speaking to the media in light of the tragic incident, Yash said, "If you wish me wholeheartedly,from where ever you are, that is the best gesture for me. Tragic incidents like these make me fear my own birthday. This is not how you show fandom.

Please don't show your love like this. I want to request you all. Don't hang banners, don't do bike chases and take dangerous selfies; my intention is for all of my audience and fans is to grow in life as I do. If you are a true fan of mine,  then do your work diligently, dedicate your life to yourself and be happy and successful. You are the ones who mean everything to your families, you should aim to make them proud.

I don't like to demonstrate popularity by exhibiting the love of my fans. I will always keep the showcasing to a minimum even if my fans are upset about it. But my intention is not to disappoint anyone.  If you respect me, then be responsible first.  Parents are waiting for you at home. It is not about monetary support that one can extend, but we can not bring back the dead."

He added, "This year, I didn't want to celebrate my birthday because COVID cases are rising. There shouldn't be any harm from our end. That's why I kept  it simple and decided to celebrate only with my family."

On the occasion of Yash's 38th birthday in Surangi, Karnataka, three of his fans were electrocuted while hanging birthday banners. The names of the deceased are Hanamanta Harijan (age 21), Murali Nadavinamani (age 20), and Naveen Ghazi (19). Three more people suffered severe injuries and were treated after being taken to Lakshmeshwar Hospital.
