Actor Yash will be seen in a dual role in Geetu Mohandas' new film, 'Toxic: A Fairytale for Grown-Ups.' The movie is set in the historical context of Goa's governance under Portuguese rule, which lasted until 1961, juxtaposed with India's independence in 1947.

The ensemble cast features Nayanthara, Kiara Advani, Huma Qureshi, Rukmini Vasanth, and Tara Sutaria. 'Toxic' is slated for a worldwide theatrical release on June 4, 2026. Yash also confirmed that 'KGF 3' will eventually be made, but his current focus is on 'Toxic' and 'Ramayana 1' and 2.
Pre-release buzz is high following a positive reception to a nine-minute preview shown at CinemaCon 2026 in Las Vegas. The film is expected to offer a character-driven experience, distinguishing it from conventional gangster genre entries.
