Kishore: I have not used the word 'mindless' to describe KGF

Noted south Indian actor Kishore's recent statement about the KGF franchise has been making headlines. The actor was trolled on social media for his views about Yash-Prashanth Neel's films and for stating it was a  'mindless' film.

However, Kishore clarified this on Instagram and said that his statement was misinterpreted. He also expressed regret about his words being discussed so much when there are much more important things to discuss and worry about.

He wrote. "It is unforgivable on my part if any of my casual words get debated or wasted people's time when there are so many real issues to discuss and act upon. Apologies for that. I would have been satisfied if there was so much discussion when I talked about farmers' problems. In any case, there was no intention to hurt anyone's feelings in those words, which somehow made their way between the discussion about freedom of choice in Rashmika's issue.

'Mindless' is actually not my word. I don't know which word of mine the writer equated and used that word and what got lost in translation. In the same way, they have changed 'I have not seen' to, 'I will not see' according to their own will and wish. I, who have not seen the movie, cannot judge it by using such words. If I do, it will be wrong on my part. But as a viewer, I have the freedom of taste and choice like everyone else. No one can push anyone into or out of the theatre. Whether it is my film or any film. To sum it up, whether it is to my taste or not, I am happy for the success of KGF and have learned a lot from that success as a filmmaker, though my KGF would be very different."

Meanwhile, producer Vijay Kiragandur in an interaction with the media has revealed that KGF 3 with Yash can only go on floors in 2025 after director Prashanth Neel completes his present commitment with Salaar, and one other project.
