The Story in Brief
Yash's upcoming film Toxic: A Fairytale for Grown-Ups, releasing on August 26, has drawn comparisons to Ranbir Kapoor's Animal after its trailer showed a nude scene. At the Bengaluru trailer launch on August 8, Yash praised co-stars Nayanthara as the 'most badass sister', revealed Tara Sutaria's role was expanded, and assured Huma Qureshi's limited trailer presence belies a powerful performance. Kiara Advani received support from husband Sidharth Malhotra amid online trolling over intimate scenes, with Yash telling her not to care about negativity and that the film is 'a little ahead of times'.
The Indian Opinion
The debate over Toxic being a 'cheap copy' of Animal feels lazy; every violent, brooding hero film will invite such comparisons now. But the real test isn't the trailer's tone, it's whether Geetu Mohandas can deliver a coherent story beneath the style. Watch for the film's second-weekend box-office hold; a steep drop will confirm the copycat charge, while sustained numbers will prove the film has its own pull.
