Yash's Toxic Hits Rs 313 Crore Globally

Bollywood just got itself a certified box office monster. Yash’s Toxic has already smashed through Rs 313 crore at the global box office by the end of Week 1, and industry observers are absolutely taking notes. The film, which also stars Kiara Advani and Nayanthara, had audiences lining up from day one. Collections are showing impressive staying power even as the opening-week frenzy naturally cools.

What’s the magic formula here? Director Aditya Dhar seems convinced that Yash’s performance is central to the buzz, throwing his full support behind the film even as some early noise circulated around it. The film bills itself as ‘A Fairytale For Grown-Ups,’ and if that high-concept pitch combined with star power were always going to translate to box office gold, these numbers definitely prove it.

Kiara Advani, who’s delivered memorable turns in Kabir Singh and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, brings her A-game to the ensemble. The three-lead dynamic appears to be genuinely clicking with audiences, suggesting Toxic could be on track for quite the theatrical run.
