1. Kiara Advani: Kiara Advani's appearance from the movie was the first to be disclosed. In the movie, her character is called Nadia. The actress characterized the part as very difficult.

In her gaze, tears are visible, suggesting a somber fairytale. Nonetheless, the year 2025 was not especially favorable for the actress. Her film Game Changer came out at the start of the year, which was a failure, and the same occurred with War 2; therefore, she must be expecting a lot from the Yash starrer.
2. Huma Qureshi: An additional Bollywood star will appear in this South Indian movie. In the movie, her character is named Elizabeth.

The actress is set to showcase an entirely regal appearance in the film, as was clear from the unveiled look. Huma is now the reigning queen of OTT, showcasing remarkable performances in Maharani and Delhi Crime.
3. Nayanthara

The actress from Jawan is involved in Yash's movie as well. There are speculations that she is portraying Yash's sister in the movie, a character that was first presented to Kareena Kapoor. In the movie, her character is named Ganga.
4. Tara Sutaria

Tara Sutaria appears in this film, and her character is named Rebecca. She exudes a perilous aura in her initial appearance. The actress appears with a gun and looks fabulous with her short hair.
5. Rukmini Vasanth: She is the fifth actress in this movie, and her appearance was recently disclosed, with the character named Melissa. In 2025, she gave an outstanding performance in Rishab Shetty’s movie Kantara Chapter 1.
She portrayed the antagonist, a truth uncovered in the climax. Her appearance in the movie has garnered significant acclaim. The actress's movie, Kantara 1, earned more than 800 crore globally.
Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups Teaser & Release Date
Earlier this year, a teaser for the film was released, featuring Yash smoking a cigar and exiting a stylish black car. Wearing a sharp white suit and a fashionable hat, he steps into a pub. The teaser ends with Yash dousing a bar dancer in alcohol.
Toxic is helmed by Geetu Mohandas. It’s a film for all of India and will come out in multiple languages, such as Hindi and Kannada. The movie is reported to have a budget of around Rs 500 crore, but it is still unclear how many other actresses are involved in the project. The film will compete with Dhurandhar 2 on March 19, 2025.
With every new reveal, Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups continues to raise expectations and deepen intrigue. If this momentum continues, the film is clearly gearing up to be one of the most talked-about releases ahead.
