Yash captioned the post simply with the release date: “19-03-2026.”
A Landmark Film in Indian Cinema
Directed by Geetu Mohandas, Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups features Kiara Advani as the female lead. What makes this project unique is that it is the first major Indian film to be conceived, written, and shot in both English and Kannada.
The film will also be dubbed in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, and Malayalam, making it a truly pan-India and global cinematic experience.
Speaking about the film, Geetu Mohandas previously stated:
“Our goal with Toxic was to create a story that resonates deeply with both Indian and global audiences. We’ve taken great care to capture the essence of the narrative in both Kannada and English, ensuring an immersive experience for viewers from different linguistic and cultural backgrounds. This film is designed to transcend borders, languages, and cultural barriers, connecting with people worldwide.”
