Toxic heads to IMAX screens
The IMAX release gives Toxic a larger theatrical format ahead of its August 26 debut. The film has already attracted attention for its scale and Yash’s role, with the actor playing Raya as well as his son in a dual role.
The cast also features Kiara Advani, Nayanthara, Rukmini Vasanth, Huma Qureshi and Tara Sutaria in pivotal roles.
Yash confirms Nayanthara plays his sister
At the trailer launch in Bengaluru, Yash confirmed that Nayanthara plays his sister in Toxic. He praised the actor for taking on the role despite having limited dates, calling her character “the most badass sister anyone could have”.
Yash also spoke about a similarity between himself and Nayanthara, saying both are not particularly comfortable with film promotions and do not always know what to say at promotional events.
Yash backs Geetu Mohandas’ vision
Toxic is directed by Geetu Mohandas, who co-wrote the film with Yash. Speaking about the filmmaker, Yash said she approached him with a strong passion and desire to show what she was capable of.

He added that he has always believed in people’s passion rather than their previous success, pointing to the number of people who contributed to the success of his earlier film KGF.
Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups will be released in theatres on August 26, with the IMAX format giving audiences another way to experience the film on the big screen.
