Toxic had generated significant pre-release buzz after multiple delays, with an English-language trailer released ahead of its worldwide debut generating strong anticipation among fans of Yash’s earlier work.
The film is being released in multiple languages as part of a simultaneous pan-India rollout, a distribution strategy several major regional productions have adopted for wide-reach openings in recent years.
The film is directed by Geetu Mohandas and stars Yash in a double role, alongside Kiara Advani, Nayanthara, Rukmini Vasanth, Huma Qureshi, Tara Sutaria, Akshay Oberoi and Sudev Nair.
