Kiara Advani has been unveiled as Nadia in the much-anticipated film Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups, directed by Geetu Mohandas. The first look poster reveals her in a mysterious and striking avatar, setting the tone for a character that promises depth and intrigue. Mohandas praised Advani’s performance as transformative, suggesting that Nadia will be central to the film’s narrative and emotional core.
The project also marks Yash’s grand return to cinema, five years after the phenomenal success of K.G.F. Chapter 2. His collaboration with Mohandas and Advani has already generated immense buzz, with fans eager to see how this new venture will build on his legacy. The film’s title hints at a blend of fantasy and grit, positioning it as a unique offering in contemporary Indian cinema.
Scheduled for release on March 19, 2026, Toxic will arrive during the festive Eid season, ensuring a wide celebration across audiences. Shot in both Kannada and English, the film will be dubbed into multiple languages, reinforcing its ambition to resonate with viewers across India and beyond. This bilingual approach highlights the team’s vision of bridging local storytelling with global accessibility.
The unveiling of Advani’s character also carries symbolic weight, coinciding with the seventh anniversary of K.G.F. Chapter 1, which debuted on December 21, 2018. That film redefined Kannada cinema’s global presence, and Toxic now seeks to continue that legacy with a fresh narrative and powerful performances. With Yash and Kiara Advani leading the charge under Geetu Mohandas’ direction, audiences can expect a cinematic spectacle that blends mystery, fantasy, and cultural resonance.
