Toxic Vs Dhurandhar 2 Box Office Collection: Yash Starrer Fails To Beat Ranveer Singh's Film On First Day

"Toxic" faced a challenge at the box office against Ranveer Singh's "Dhurandhar 2." However, the Yash-starrer had to be postponed, and it hit theaters on August 26, 2026. As a result, all eyes were on "Toxic" for its opening day performance. According to Sacnilk, "Toxic" generated Rs. 101.10 crore net (all languages) in India on its first day.

On the other hand, "Dhurandhar 2" raked in Rs. 102.55 crore net (all languages) on its opening day, resulting in a mere Rs. 1.45 crore difference in collections. Despite the small margin, "Toxic" did not manage to surpass "Dhurandhar 2." Ranveer Singh's film has a lifetime collection of Rs. 1,149.30 crore net in India, and it remains to be seen whether "Toxic" can match that figure.

Meanwhile, "Toxic" outperformed Yash's previous release, "KGF Chapter 2," which earned Rs. 116 crore net in all languages. The film has garnered mixed to negative reviews from critics and audiences, who criticize the weak screenplay, direction, lack of emotional connection, and lengthy runtime. One critic even recommended skipping the movie.

As for its future box office prospects, "Toxic" is expected to experience a drop in numbers on its second day, but a potential jump during the weekend is a possibility.
