Toxic: A Fairy Tale Not Delayed, Yash-Starrer To Release On Original Date

All rumours have been put to rest as South star Yash’s action-drama extravaganza Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups will release in theatres worldwide on March 19, 2026, exactly as originally announced. Amid a wave of chatter suggesting a postponement, film trade analyst Taran Adarsh reached out to the makers to verify the situation and then took to social media to issue a clear, categorical update confirming that there is no delay.

After speaking with the production team, Taran clarified that the film remains on schedule, with post-production and VFX work having begun in April, parallel to when Yash began shoot for Ramayana in Mumbai. The final stretch of filming is currently underway in Bangalore, and full-scale promotions are expected to roll out in January 2026.

Following this confirmation, one of the film’s production banners, KVN Productions, reinforced the release plan by sharing a countdown post on social media: "140 days to go. His Untamed Presence, Is Your Existential Crisis. #ToxicTheMovie releases worldwide on 19-03-2026."
