Confirming the same, the film’s producers revealed, “Due to the lack of optimal facilities, all our big films end up being shot outside the state. Rocking Star Yash has long expressed that concern, and to change that, we at KVN Productions and Monster Mind Creations are kickstarting the shooting of Toxic in Karnataka. We have already erected massive sets, creating many job opportunities and avenues for people at ground level, technicians and budding talent in the state. We are working towards making a film of Global potential.

“As producers, we had options from various locations in India and abroad. The film has onboard actors and technicians from multiple industries, even international talent, and setting up a base there would have been more economical. However, Yash and KVN took the initiative to establish Toxic HQ in Karnataka before we shoot parts of the film in locations elsewhere, and showcase the tremendous potential of our people.”

Meanwhile, upon the film’s announcement, a special video was shared, featuring visually striking graphics such as flames, a burning ticket, a clown picture, a man smoking a cigar, and more. Accompanied by a power-packed background music, it caused quite a stir online.

Toxic: A Fairy Tale For Grown-Ups is expected to feature Yash in a never-seen-before avatar and while reports are doing the rounds about many names from the industry being a part of the film, including Kareena Kapoor Khan, the makers are yet to make an official announcement about the star cast. The film is scheduled to hit the screens on April 10, 2025.
