Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups, starring Rocking Star Yash, made its theatrical debut on August 26 after facing multiple delays. The film initially drew controversy over its depiction of women in the trailer, along with Yash and Kiara Advani's on-screen chemistry and the song "Tabaahi." Yash's supporters defended the movie, but the first audience reactions at early-morning screenings were decidedly negative.
Venky Reviews, an X user, described the film as "a complete nightmare" and criticized its messy first half, heavy reliance on KGF: Chapter 2, and an exhausting screenplay. He noted that the background music was also disappointing, but acknowledged that the interval and some Yash-Kiara scenes were better. Another review labeled the film a "fairy tale that turns into a complete nightmare," commending its technical quality but lambasting the chaotic writing, confusing narrative, and artificial action sequences.
The user praised Yash's screen presence and a few standout scenes, but ultimately deemed the film a "straight up disaster."
