10 years engaged and still going strong. From Nanda Gokula to becoming the biggest star in Kannada cinema with KGF - Yash's journey is inspiring. And having Radhika by his side throughout? Makes the story even better. All the best for Toxic!

Remember watching their wedding photos in 2016 and thinking what a lovely couple they made. Now two kids later, still so much love between them! Radhika choosing to stay away from films to focus on family while supporting Yash's career shows real partnership. Beautiful to see! 😊

Yash's rise from TV serials to becoming the Rocking Star is no small feat. And throughout it all, he's stayed so grounded - even doing that fan reception at Bengaluru Palace. That's class. Happy anniversary to this wonderful couple!

As someone who follows Indian cinema from abroad, it's refreshing to see such a genuine bond between two actors. They've managed to keep their family life private even while being massive public figures. Respect for that. Wishing the family continued happiness!

Toxic budget of ₹500-1000 crore? That's incredible for Indian cinema! Yash really is taking Kannada films to a global level. But more importantly, seeing him today as a family man - completely different from the gangster roles he plays. Great balance, sir! 🔥
