Yash's statement

"Please don't express your affection like this. I would like to request you all. Do not hang banners, go on bike chases, or take risky pictures; my goal is for all of my audience and admirers to progress in life alongside me. If you are a true fan of mine, then work hard, devote your life to yourself, and be happy and successful. You are the ones who mean everything to your families; aim to make them proud," he continued.

"I don't like to show my popularity by displaying the adoration of my followers. I will always keep displaying to a minimum, even if my followers are upset. However, my objective is not to disappoint anyone. If you respect me, you must first take responsibility. Parents are waiting for you at home. It is not about providing monetary assistance, but we cannot bring back the deceased," Yash stated.
