Actress Nayanthara has explained why she usually stays away from film promotions and made an exception for the Bengaluru trailer launch of the Yash-starrer ‘Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups’. Speaking at the event, she said public appearances are not her strength, but Yash's personal call convinced her to attend. She also revealed that she initially refused the film when director Geetu Mohandas approached her, but changed her mind after a detailed narration. Nayanthara praised Yash as genuine, saying his larger-than-life image matches his real personality. She stars as his sister Ganga in the gangster drama.
