The central conflict in Toxic and its handling is similar to that of the internationally acclaimed cult series Peaky Blinder. Yash appears in the Geetu Mohandas movie as an international don. Specifics
Back in 2023, Pinkvilla broke the news first, revealing that Yash and Geetu Mohandas will be collaborating on a full-fledged action movie after the KGF franchise’s unprecedented success. Not too long later, we revealed that Nayanthara and Kiara Advani will be the protagonist’s on-screen sister and love interest, respectively. Additionally, we now exclusively know that Nayanthara and Yash have covertly begun filming Toxic in India.
Toxic to be shot extensively in London
“In India, toxic went on floors according to Yash and Nayanthara’s timetable. There will be a marathon program in London after this short stay at actual spots in India. For Toxic, Geetu Mohandas has scheduled 200 days of shooting, 150 of which will take place in and around London. Some of the most important sequences from Toxic will be shot there, according to a person close to the development. The entire team will be traveling to the UK soon.
The insider claims that although Yash portrays a fashionable don in the movie, his treatment is much different from that of the KGF franchise. “The tone is very modern and global, even though the character is an underworld don.” According to the source, “Toxic’s central conflict and the treatment are similar to the cult international series Peaky Blinder.”
Toxic to release on April 10, 2025
The exact timelines of shoot has been kept under wraps as the team of Toxic is developing the film by maintaining secrecy and curiosity around the project. The gangster-based action drama is slated to release on April 10, 2025, co-inciding with 3 years of KGF 2. Apart from the trio of Yash, Nayanthara, and Kiara Advani, Toxic also features Huma Qureshi as the antagonist. “Huma will be joined by some other actors too in the negative turn. It’s a rich ensemble of actors from across the country and the idea of Toxic team is to provide an uncompromised cinematic experience,” the source concluded.
