‘Daddy’s back’: Yash’s 2.5-minute Toxic teaser packs more action than an average potboiler; film to clash with Dhurandhar 2

The teaser showcases Yash’s menacing Raya in a graphic, violent underworld, marking his first major film since KGF: Chapter 2, set to release March 19, 2026.

  • Yash marked his 40th birthday by unveiling an almost 3-minute teaser that formally introduces Raya and plunges viewers into Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups' dark world.
  • KVN Productions shared the extended teaser on social media with the caption introducing RAYA, building on last year's birthday teaser and highlighting Yash's co-writing with director Geetu Mohandas.
  • The teaser begins in a cemetery where a burial van and drunk driver prepare a bomb, followed by a car sequence with explosions, then Yash appears shirtless, smoking and firing, saying `Daddy's home`.
  • Fans responded immediately on social media with praise for the teaser's scale and style, amplifying anticipation for Toxic ahead of its box-office clash with Dhurandhar 2.
  • Toxic is slated to hit theatres on March 19, 2026, directed by Geetu Mohandas and produced by Venkat K Narayana and Yash under Monster Mind Creations, reuniting Yash with an ensemble cast including Nayanthara and Kiara Advani.
