On Saturday, a pre-release event for Yash's film Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups was interrupted when a speaker stand collapsed, resulting in some fans sustaining injuries. The mishap occurred at the Malla Reddy Group of Institutions in Medchal-Malkajgiri district, Hyderabad. Crowds had assembled to see Yash and other cast members of the movie.
Police reported that some fans attempted to gain a better view by climbing onto the DJ speaker stand, while a group was performing stunts on it. The stand subsequently lost balance and fell, causing several fans to fall from a height and sustain injuries. Emergency medical services swiftly transported the injured to a nearby hospital.
Footage of the incident was captured by onlookers and subsequently shared on social media. The trailer for Toxic had been released earlier that month, promoting a larger-than-life gangster story dealing with love, power, betrayal, and redemption. The film stars Nayanthara, Kiara Advani, Tara Sutaria, Rukmini Vasanth, and Huma Qureshi.
It is set to be released in theaters worldwide on August 26. Nayanthara shared that Yash dedicated four and a half years of his life to making Toxic, sacrificing time with his family. The actor addressed the disparity in salaries among the cast, including Nayanthara, Kiara Advani, Huma Qureshi, and Tara Sutaria, stating that Yash remains a devoted fan of Shah Rukh Khan.
