The makers of 2026’s most-awaited film, Toxic: Fairytale for Grown-Ups, have elevated Rocking star Yash's 40th birthday celebrations by releasing a 2-minute and 51-second character glimpse. KVN Productions has pulled back the curtain on the sinister world Yash’s new character inhabits, providing a haunting first look at Toxic: Fairytale for Grown-Ups that has everyone talking.
The scene transforms from the stillness of a graveyard to a frantic blaze of gunfire and flying debris. Through the thick haze of the smoke appears Raya, a deadly figure looking terrifying, commanding power. Yash, as Raya doesn't just survive the ambush, but he dominates it. Wielding a Tommy gun and a cold, focused gaze, Yash as Raya establishes himself as a force that refuses to be rushed.
From its very first frame, Yash's Toxic establishes a dark and unapologetic tone. The film sheds its image from the conventional familiarity in favour of a daring, large-scale visual experience.
Ever since the project was first announced, it has been driven by a singular goal - to redefine the standards of Indian filmmaking through an uncompromising creative vision. The makers guarantee an immersive journey for the audience, leaving them with a powerful, large-scale impact that will linger for a long time.
Written by Yash and Geetu Mohandas and directed by Geetu Mohandas, Toxic: A Fairytale for Grown-Ups has been simultaneously shot in Kannada and English, with dubbed versions planned in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, and several other languages.
Produced by Venkat K Narayana and Yash under the banners KVN Productions and Monster Mind Creations, Toxic: A Fairytale for Grown-Ups is scheduled for a theatrical release on 19 March 2026, coinciding with Eid, Ugadi, and Gudi Padwa.
