Toxic advance booking crosses Rs 40 crore, Yash film eyes Rs 100 crore opening

Yash's latest endeavor, Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups, is poised for a massive global opening tomorrow with advance bookings surpassing Rs 40 crore. The film, which reunites Yash with his KGF: Chapter 2 co-star, is generating considerable buzz not just in Karnataka but across Hindi-speaking states. Kannada filmmaker Ramakrishna DK expressed pride in Yash's achievement, noting the actor's humble beginnings as a bus driver's son.

Despite a slow start in Hindi-speaking regions, trade analysts remain optimistic that the film will open to at least Rs 40 crore in the Hindi market. The ensemble cast, including actors from various regional industries, is expected to further boost the film's hype. Industry experts attribute much of the film's success to Yash's established stardom, which propelled him to international fame with KGF.

Early bookings and strong responses in states like Bihar, Andhra Pradesh, and Telangana suggest a promising start, with Karnataka expected to be the biggest contributor to Toxic's opening weekend.
