Why Yash won't meet fans on birthday?

In the statement, Yash wrote, “To my dearest fans, I honestly am deeply aware of how you've been waiting to meet me over the last few years. Trust me, I’ve been longing to see you all just as much. I truly wanted to make it happen this year on my birthday, but I am fully immersed in finishing the film to make sure it's ready for you in theaters on March 19th, 2026. Because of this, I won't be able to meet you in person just yet. Even though we couldn’t make it happen now, I promise to make it up to you. We will meet in a much bigger way, very soon. In the meantime, I will be personally looking through all your wishes and cherishing every bit of the love you send.”
