Yash’s ‘Toxic’ postponed to June 4, makers cite tension in West Asia as the reason

Bengaluru: The release of the much awaited Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups starring Yash has been postponed to June 4, according to a press note from KVN Productions.

The makers, who earlier dismissed speculation about the film’s release being postponed, have now cited “escalating tensions and instability in West Asia” as the reason for pushing the film’s release.

The film was earlier slated for release on March 19.

The decision was taken following consultations with key distributor Phars Films, as disruptions in the Gulf — a major overseas market — could impact the film’s global rollout, the press statement read.

Directed by Geetu Mohandas, Toxic also stars Nayanthara, Kiara Advani, Huma Qureshi, Rukmini Vasanth and Tara Sutaria.
