Kannada Star Yash's Film 'Toxic' Fails at Box Office Despite Grand Comeback

Summary

Yash’s comeback film 'Toxic' has flopped at the box office despite a massive opening and a 500 crore rupee budget. Negative reviews, audience backlash, and stiff competition have driven its collections far below expectations.

Key Points
  • 'Toxic' opened strongly with 101 crore in India and 145 crore worldwide on day one, setting a new Kannada cinema record.
  • Negative social media reactions and weak audience response caused collections to fall sharply after the opening weekend.
  • By September 10, the film had earned 247 crore in India and 339 crore worldwide, still far short of recouping its 500 crore budget.
  • The film is being described as a bigger loss than 'Adipurush' because it still needs about 230 crore more to break even.
