About Toxic Movie
Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups is an upcoming Kannada period action thriller film directed by Geetu Mohandas, with the script co-written by Yash. The film features Yash in the lead role, alongside an ensemble cast including Nayanthara, Kiara Advani, Tara Sutaria, Darrell D’Silva, Huma Qureshi, and Akshay Oberoi.
In April 2018, reports surfaced that Yash would collaborate with director Geetu Mohandas for his next project after the KGF film franchise. Initially referred to as Yash 19, the production was expected to begin after Geetu finalized it as her next directorial venture. By April 2023, sources confirmed that Yash and Geetu had officially signed the project, with production slated to begin in June 2023.
Principal photography for Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups began in June 2024, with a significant portion of the shoot taking place on 8 August 2024 at a massive 20-acre set near Bengaluru. The set was designed to replicate the era from the 1940s to the 1970s. The production involves an extensive team of over 1,000 crew members and 450 actors, including foreign extras.
The film was officially announced on December 8, 2023, via KVN Productions’ YouTube channel. The first poster was revealed on January 7, 2024, followed by the release of the first-look teaser on January 8, 2024, in celebration of Yash’s birthday.
