Toxic teaser: Yash as Raya unleashes a fierce world of violence
Yash’s 40th birthday celebrations turned special after the makers of his upcoming film, Toxic- A Fairytale for Grown-Ups, released the teaser of the highly anticipated drama.
The film boasts an ensemble star cast featuring Kiara Advani as Nadia, Huma Qureshi as Elizabeth, Nayanthara as Ganga, Tara Sutaria as Rebecca, and Rukmini Vasanth as Melissa.
Directed by Geetu Mohandas, the teaser introduced the actor as Raya through a powerful, bold, and high-impact announcement that commands attention from the very first frame.
Set against the haunting stillness of a cemetery erupting into chaos, the tease opens in a blaze of action.
Gunfire cuts through the silence, bodies scatter, and through the smoke emerges Raya composed, unflinching, and in complete control.
Armed with a Tommy gun, he doesn’t rush the moment, he owns it.
The teaser shows Raya not a character seeking validation, but power, moving with intent, confidence, and presence.
Written by Yash and Geetu Mohandas and directed by Geetu Mohandas, Toxic: A Fairytale for Grown-Ups has been simultaneously shot in Kannada and English, with dubbed versions planned in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, and several other languages — underscoring the film’s global ambition.
