Yash returns with 'Toxic' directed by Mohandas after 'KGF'
Yash, best known for KGF, is back with Toxic, a new multilingual gangster drama directed by Geetu Mohandas.
The film promises to push Indian cinema beyond the usual formulas and aims for a global impact.
After KGF, Yash said he wanted projects that would challenge him creatively instead of just riding on his fame.
'Toxic' probes morality in 1947-1961 Goa
Toxic dives into themes like moral ambiguity and power struggles, focusing more on real emotions than flashy action.
Set in a fictionalized Goa during the political upheaval under Portuguese rule (1947-1961), it stars Nayanthara, Kiara Advani, and Tovino Thomas.
The production team has recreated the era with care; casting was based on story needs rather than market trends.
With music by Ravi Basrur and cinematography by Rajeev Ravi, Toxic drops worldwide in 2026 as a big-budget film blending history with fearless storytelling.
