Yash's Toxic: A 500 Crore Disaster
11 Sep
Summary
- Toxic faced one of Indian cinema's biggest week 2 drops, earning under 10 crore.
- The film's budget soared to 500 crore, with only 48.8% recovered.
- Toxic is heading for a lifetime collection below 250 crore net, declared a flop.
The film Toxic, starring Yash, has registered one of the most significant week 2 box office declines in Indian cinema history. Despite a substantial budget of 500 crore, the movie has struggled to recoup its costs.
In its 16 days of release, Toxic accumulated a net collection of 243.99 crore in India. This figure represents only 48.8% of its production budget. The film experienced a severe drop of 96.2% from its opening week to the second week.
Directed by Geethu Mohandas and produced by Venkat K Narayana and Yash, Toxic was released on August 26. Projections indicate a lifetime collection of below 250 crore net. This performance has led to a deficit of 256.01 crore, solidifying its status as a major box office disappointment.
The film's overall recovery is expected to fall below 50%, leading to its classification as a flop according to industry standards. The extensive budget and subsequent underperformance have placed Toxic among the biggest disasters in Indian cinema.
