'Toxic torture, a downfall nobody expected'; Yash's 'Toxic' gets shocking response on release day

Toxic, the Indian gangster film that received much hype even months before its release, is now in theatres. Since the time the trailer dropped, fans have been anticipating the release. Pan -Indian star Yash is joined by a motley cast in this film directed by award-winning filmmaker Geethu Mohandas.

It is Thiruvonam day in Kerala, and there is no stopping the rush in theatres for Toxic. Let us hear from the audience regarding the first-day response to one of India’s most anticipated movies of 2026.

• The worst part is the dialogues. The four-year dedication Yash put into the film has gone down the drain. This will be the biggest downfall for Yash.

• This is toxic torture.

• The worst that Yash will ever do. Nothing could stoop lower than this.

• Thiruvonam day wasted

• Poor execution, terrible storytelling and appalling acting. What is the purpose of splashing these crores for such a disaster?

• Not even one high moment in this three-and-a-half-hour-long movie. Theatre acting at its core.

• The movie is below par, but what made it even worse was the Malayalam dubbing.

• Unbearable

• I walked out of the theatre even before the climax. Take that for a review.

• I don’t know about others, but I liked the movie. A different kind of cinema.
