Yash’s ‘Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups’ has been embroiled in speculations over its release date. A report by The Hollywood Reporter earlier quashed the rumours, after industry insiders revealed, “There is absolutely no truth to the rumours about Toxic being postponed. The film is firmly on track for its March 19 release, and there has been no change whatsoever to the schedule. Promotional activities are strategically lined up, and the team is executing everything as planned.”The Yash starrer will clash with Ranveer Singh’s highly anticipated film ‘Dhurandhar: The Revenge’, which is releasing on March 19, 2026. Though many films have moved its release date owing to ‘Dhurandhar: The Revenge’, the Yash starrer has no fear of locking horns with the biggie. Starring Yash, the upcoming gangster film also features Nayanthara, Kiara Advani, Tara Sutaria, Rukmini Vasanth, and Huma Qureshi in pivotal roles. ‘Toxic’ has been shot simultaneously in Kannada and English, with dubbed versions planned in multiple Indian languages.
