Rukmini Vasanth's character revealed in 'Toxic: A Fairytale for Grown-Ups'
Rukmini Vasanth has just been announced as Mellisa in "Toxic: A Fairytale for Grown-Ups," a new film from director Geetu Mohandas, arriving in theaters March 19, 2026.
The first-look poster sets a cool vibe, showing her character with calm authority and a focused expression right in the middle of a hazy party scene from the late 1960s.
