Kannada superstar Yash's upcoming film Toxic has crossed Rs 50 crore in advance ticket sales, according to Gulf News. The action drama, directed by Geetu Mohandas, is one of the most anticipated Indian films of 2025 and is set for a worldwide theatrical release on 10 April.
The film marks Yash's first release since the blockbuster KGF franchise and is produced by KVN Productions. The advance booking figures include sales from multiplex chains and single screens across Karnataka and other key markets.
The makers have planned a wide release across more than 1,000 screens in India and overseas. Industry tracking suggests the film could post one of the biggest opening weekends for a Kannada film this year.
Indian Opinion Analysis
Advance sales of Rs 50 crore place Toxic in the league of top-tier Indian openers, though Kannada cinema has historically relied on word-of-mouth more than pre-sales. The film carries the weight of Yash's post-KGF stardom, which turned him into a pan-India draw comparable to Prabhas after Baahubali. Geetu Mohandas, known for indie festival films, is an unusual choice for a mass action vehicle, making the box-office performance a test of whether a director with arthouse credentials can handle a star-driven spectacle. The real number to watch is the opening-day gross on 10 April, which will show whether the advance momentum converts into walk-in audiences.
