Yash's 'Toxic' Crosses ₹300 Crore Worldwide! India Praised for 'Beautiful Spectacle'

Yash's highly anticipated film 'Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups' has made a significant mark at the global box office, surpassing the impressive ₹300 crore milestone. As of its sixth day, the film's worldwide gross earnings have reached a staggering ₹304.05 crore, solidifying its position as a major contender. While the film continues its impressive run, it did experience a dip in its domestic collection on its sixth day.

On Monday, the movie garnered ₹7.45 crore net in India, marking a 67% drop from its previous collections.

This brings the film's total India net collection to ₹221.55 crore. Despite the fluctuations, the Kannada version of 'Toxic' has maintained the strongest overall occupancy among all major language releases, showcasing strong regional support.

Adding to the film's positive buzz, actor Akshay Oberoi expressed immense pride in 'Toxic.' Oberoi remarked that India should be incredibly proud of what they have achieved with the film, hailing it as a "beautiful spectacle." Such endorsements often contribute to sustaining audience interest and appreciation. Meanwhile, the film also found itself at the center of industry discussions when Ram Gopal Varma publicly defended producer Allu Aravind's earlier comments regarding Yash.

Varma took to social media platform X, stating that the controversy around Aravind's remark, where he implied he didn't know Yash before 'KGF', was "ridiculously laughable." Varma clarified that Aravind's intention was to highlight how big films often introduce previously lesser-known actors to a wider audience, turning them into stars. He drew parallels with examples like Prabhas before 'Baahubali' and Rishab Shetty before 'Kantara.' RGV also cited Hollywood examples like Marlon Brando, suggesting that sometimes films make the stars, rather than stars solely driving the film's success.

He emphasized that Hollywood often invests in concept-driven films rather than relying solely on star power. Varma concluded his defense by stating that

only highly egotistic people will take his statement personally on such a general well-meaning thought,

suggesting that such reactions also explain certain industry dynamics.
