Yash’s highly anticipated movie, Toxic: A Fairy Tale For Grown-Ups, is making history with a groundbreaking cinematic endeavor. It’s the primary large-scale Indian film to be conceptualized, written, and filmed in each English and Kannada, paving the best way for a really global film experience. The film can be dubbed in multiple Indian and international languages, including Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, and Malayalam.
Toxic, written and directed by the internationally acclaimed Geetu Mohandas, is poised to redefine cross-cultural storytelling. The film’s Kannada version will capture the nuances for Indian audiences, while English will ensure worldwide accessibility, reflecting the filmmakers’ commitment to authenticity and diverse reach.
Speaking in regards to the film, director Geetu Mohandas said, “Our vision for Toxic was to craft a narrative that resonates authentically with audiences each in India and globally. We’ve strived to capture the nuances of the story in each Kannada and English, ensuring an authentic experience for viewers across different linguistic and cultural backgrounds.
“Toxic explores a collaboration of artistic vision and precision of business storytelling. It’s a journey that transcends borders, languages, and cultural confines, designed to attach with hearts and minds worldwide,” she further explained. Jointly produced by Venkat Narayana under KVN Productions and Yash’s Monster Mind Creations, Toxic, was conceived as a worldwide cinematic experience. The vision is reflected within the collaboration between box office phenomenon Yash and Geetu Mohandas, whose work has been awarded at many international platforms, including the Sundance Film Festival and the Toronto Film Festival.
The international team of the film includes motion sequences by JJ Perry, best known for his work within the John Wick and Fast & Furious franchises, and visual effects by DNEG, who recently won the BAFTA Film Award for Special Visual Effects for Dune: Part Two. The team was fastidiously assembled to match the project’s scale, further emphasizing the worldwide approach. The filmmakers’ commitment to authentic storytelling and messaging led them to embrace the bilingual format.
A “Birthday Peek” on Yash’s big day last month, offered a glimpse into the world of Toxic. The teaser generated significant excitement, showcasing the film’s scale and international-standard production values. Filming of the movie began in August 2024 and required extensive preparation and prolonged days of shooting for the recently revealed bilingual nature. The filmmakers are invested in creating an immersive world, bringing together a top-tier global and Indian talent pool. These aspects combined have contributed to the project’s scale and timeline, positioning Toxic as one of the vital expensive Indian productions.
Speaking in regards to the movie’s scope, producer Venkat K Narayana said, “Our goal for Toxic was crystal clear: a movie that resonates in India and globally. From the very starting, we were driven by a deep conviction on this story and its potential. This unwavering belief fueled our ‘all-in’ approach, required to bring this cinematic experience to life. We embraced the challenge wholeheartedly, confident that Toxic won’t only captivate audiences worldwide but in addition showcase the brilliance of Indian cinema on a worldwide stage.”
