Superstar Yash has set the internet ablaze once again! The actor took to social media to unveil a striking new poster for his upcoming film Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups, confirming that the countdown to one of 2026’s most anticipated releases has officially begun. Captioned “The Fairy Tale unfolds in 100 days”, Yash's post came loaded with excitement, tagging director Geetu Mohandas, KVN Productions, Monster Mind Creations, and key technicians who are shaping this ambitious project.
The newly revealed poster is a powerful mood-setter. Featuring Yash’s tattooed back against a moody, dimly lit backdrop, the image instantly signals a shift in tone—dark, layered, and dripping with intrigue. Far from his iconic KGF persona, Yash appears ready to embrace a more complex anti-hero, blending grit with the surreal charm of an adult-themed fairy tale. Fans are already calling it one of his most stylish transformations to date.
Toxic has been drawing attention ever since its announcement as Yash 19, marking the actor’s 19th film as a leading star. Directed and co-written by the acclaimed Geetu Mohandas, with Yash himself contributing to the story, the film promises to be a genre-bending period gangster saga. Cinematographer Rajeev Ravi’s distinctive visual style and Anirudh Ravichander’s Kannada cinema debut only add to the mounting excitement surrounding this project.
The film also boasts a stellar ensemble cast, featuring Nayanthara, Kiara Malhotra, Tara Sutaria, Huma Qureshi, Rukmini Vasanth, Akshay Oberoi, and Sudev Nair. Jointly produced by Venkat K. Narayana and Yash under KVN Productions and Monster Mind Creations, Toxic has been simultaneously shot in Kannada and English and will release in six languages, positioning it as a truly pan-Indian spectacle.
Set for a grand theatrical release on 19 March 2026, coinciding with Ugadi, Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups is shaping up to be one of the boldest and most visually daring films of the year. With the 100-day countdown now officially ticking, Yash fans across the globe are bracing for a thrilling new cinematic era from their favourite superstar.
