Remember when KGF's Yash was trolled by Kiccha Sudeepa's fans over a challenge?

Back in 2018, Kiccha Sudeepa had nominated KGF's Yash for a fitness challenge on social media. However, the latter thought of giving it a twist which did not go down well with a bunch of Sudeepa's fans. He received significant flak over his tweet and some users trolled him for disrespecting his elders. 

After the fitness challenge was given to Yash by Sudeep, the former took to his Twitter and dropped a video in which he said, "Thanks Sudeep. Actors keep working out, so this is not something that is new to us. So, I thought I would add a twist to this challenge. I have made my childhood friend Chetan, aka Chakli, take up this challenge." Yash did not take up the challenge and instead shared a glimpse of his friend, who was made to perform the exercise. 

As soon as netizens stumbled upon his video, a user wrote, "Mr Yash, being an responsible actor don't you have basic manners as to how to wish or call your senior?? Calling a senior actor by his name will not take you a long way..!!", wheres some fans also thought that it was not the right way to react to someone's challenge. Another user penned, "It's a really bad attitude." While sharing the video, Yash wrote that he accepted the challenge but with a twist.
