Yash explained, “Toxic is also a highly ambitious film. At first glance, it may appear to be a standard gangster movie packed with action; however, it is far from being just another ordinary gangster-action story. It delves into deep psychological themes. Furthermore, for the first time, we have filmed this movie simultaneously in English.
It represents a truly unique approach to presenting a ‘dark character.’ It was an incredibly thrilling experience, working alongside some of the finest technicians and my director, G.U.” Mohandas has infused the gangster genre with a completely fresh style. It promises to be a ‘visual treat’ for the audience, while simultaneously leaving a profound impact on their mindset and psychology.
When asked what he found novel about the project from an actor’s perspective, Yash replied: “Well, as I’ve mentioned before, I have played gangster roles in the past. However, this film reveals many distinct facets—or ‘shades’—of such characters; it features a variety of looks and brings together a host of exceptional actors.
Speaking in the context of India, it is a complete universe in itself. If you travel just 200 kilometers from any given state, you will encounter a completely different language. Consequently, this film is populated by people representing diverse cultures and speaking a wide array of languages. This is not going to be just an ordinary film; it is going to be a larger-than-life cinematic experience.
