After Kareena Kapoor Khan's departure from the Yash-starrer Toxic: A Fairytale for Grown-ups, fans are eager to know who will take on the role of the KGF star's sister in the movie. Directed by Geetu Mohandas and produced by Venkat K Narayana's KVN Productions and Yash's Monster Mind Creations, the movie promises to present Yash in a fresh and intriguing role.
There are speculations that the makers of Toxic have approached renowned actress Nayanthara for the part. Reports circulating online suggest that several discussions have occurred between the filmmakers and Nayanthara to finalise her participation in the film, following Kareena's exit due to scheduling conflicts. Fans are eager to witness Nayanthara in a dynamic role, portraying the mafia's sister and engaging in intense action sequences alongside Yash.
About Toxic
Bollywood star Kiara Advani portrays Yash's love interest in the movie. Set against the backdrop of the mafia world, the film is anticipated to be a full-fledged action-packed venture. Announced by Yash in December 2023, the film is anticipated to be a gripping action thriller unfolding within the drug mafia's domain. With Yash's fame reaching new heights following the triumph of the KGF movies, audiences are eagerly anticipating his portrayal in Toxic. Scheduled for release on April 10, 2025, the film has generated considerable excitement among fans.
About Nayanthara
Nayanthara, often hailed as the 'lady superstar' in the southern film industry, is known for her discerning choice of projects. She faced severe criticism following her last film Annapoorani, with audiences accusing it of offending religious sentiments. The backlash was so intense that the film was removed from the OTT streaming platform Netflix. Additionally, her Bollywood debut Jawan, alongside Shah Rukh Khan, failed to make an impact as her role lacked substance. It appears that Toxic could potentially serve as a comeback vehicle for her.
The producers affirmed their dedication to creating a film with worldwide appeal. Despite having the opportunity to film in diverse locations across India and abroad, Yash and KVN opted to highlight the talent and resources of Karnataka.
