Yash, the Indian superstar who soared to new heights with KGF: Chapter 2, is set to make a grand comeback with 'Toxic'. The film's first teaser offers a glimpse into a chaotic 1940s underworld, where Yash portrays a gangster.
India crowned a new superstar in 2022 when the film KGF: Chapter 2 became one of the country's highest-grossing blockbusters. The film surpassed the internationally acclaimed RRR, which earned over $160 million worldwide, cementing its position as the top-grossing Indian blockbuster of that year. Yash , the film's actor, reached new heights of fame, but he surprisingly chose to take a step back from the spotlight.
Since then, he hasn't appeared in any films, but he's set to make a grand return this year with Toxic. Described as a 'fairy tale for grown-ups,' the film's first teaser was released on Yash's birthday, January 8th. The minute-long teaser offers the first glimpse of the film, directed by Geetu Mohandas. This pairing is unusual within the Indian film industry. While Yash is recognized for his high-octane action films, Mohandas is best known for the emotionally resonant queer drama Moothon, released in 2019, just a year after Yash starred in KGF: Chapter 1. The Toxic teaser bears no resemblance to Mohandas' previous work; instead, it evokes the chaotic energy of Damien Chazelle's Babylon's elaborate opening sequence, combined with the maximalism of Baz Luhrmann's The Great Gatsby. Seemingly set in the 1940s, the movie appears to feature Yash as a gangster. He emerges from a car wearing a fedora, lights a cigar, and enters a nightclub. Inside, people are indulging in cocaine, blowing smoke, dancers perform, and patrons shower cash into the air. The protagonist strides with confidence as techno music pulsates in the background, grabs a woman, and pulls her close. He then pours alcohol down her face. The teaser concludes with a title card but withholds the movie's release date
