About Toxic

Directed by Geetu Mohandas, the movie Toxic features Yash in dual roles alongside Kiara Advani, Tara Sutaria, Huma Qureshi, Nayanthara, Rukmini Vasanth, and more in significant parts. The fantasy action drama movie signifies Yash's comeback to cinemas after a four-year hiatus. The actor's most recent appearance was in the film KGF 2, which became a major hit, earning over Rs 1200 crore globally at the box office.

Besides Toxic, Yash has Ramayana in development as well. The film by Nitesh Tiwari features Ranbir Kapoor portraying Lord Rama, Sai Pallavi as Sita, Sunny Deol as Lord Hanuman, and Ravie Dubey as Lakshman. The movie is set to come out in two segments, with the first hitting theaters on Diwali 2026 and the second on Diwali 2027.

Yash’s Toxic Will Be Available In How Many Languages?

The film was filmed concurrently in Kannada and English and will be dubbed and released in various Indian languages, such as Hindi, Malayalam, Telugu, and Tamil.

Toxic: A Fairy Tale For Grown-Ups will be released globally. Thus, audiences will have the access to see the film in multiple languages.

Box Office Competition

After so many delays, Toxic is now scheduled for 26 August. But the movie will have to face a tough competition at the box office as there are few other biggest releases scheduled during that week. Here is the list of movies which are released in August-September (Rakshabandan Week).

Rakshabandhan Special
Movie Name	Release Date	Lead Cast
Toxic: A Fairy Tale For Grow-Ups	26 August 2026	Yash, Nayanthara, Kiara, Huma, & Tara Sutaria
Eetha	28 August 2026	Shraddha Kapoor
Vvan	28 August 2026	Sidharth Malhotra and Tamannaah Bhatia
Mirzapur The Movie	4 September 2026	Pankaj Tripathi, Ali Fazal, and Divyenndu

1. Toxic: Toxic is a high-octane film which was postponed twice before. Yash’s fans across India are eagerly waiting to see him on the big screens.

2. Eetha: Eetha starring Sharaddha Kapoor in the lead role is a biographical drama based on legendary Marathi Tamasha artist Vithabai Bhau Mang Narayangaonkar. On the release date of Cocktail 2, some photos of Shraddha Kapoor as Vithabai went viral across social media. She receives a huge applause for her transition from the audience. Thus, Eetha seems a tough competition for Toxic.

3. Vvan: Vvan is an upcoming supernatural thriller which includes elements like horror and suspense. It stars Sidharth Malhotra and Tamannaah Bhatia. For now, the makers do not release any poster or teaser featuring its cast members.

4. Mirzapur: The Movie: One of the most popular web series Mirzapur makes its cinema debut on 4 September 2026. Fans are super excited to see their favorite series on the big screens.

With a massive budget, star-studded cast, and Yash returning after KGF 2, Toxic is easily one of the biggest films of 2026. Now all eyes are on whether it can dominate a highly competitive release window.
