Director Geetu Mohandas spills the beans on Toxic

Speaking about Yash and creating the world of Toxic, director Geetu Mohandas said it is a story that defies convention and is sure to provoke chaos within us. “Today, as we release the first peek of our film we also celebrate Yash - a man the nation reveres for his vision and swagger. I have observed his brilliance and to those who know him or follow his journey, his process is as mysterious as it is meticulous,” Mohandas said.

“It is both a privilege and a thrill to have co-written this captivating world alongside a mind that sees the extraordinary where others see the ordinary. When our two worlds of thought collide, the result is neither compromise nor chaos—it’s the transformation that happens when artistic vision meets the precision of commercial storytelling transcending borders, languages, and cultural confines," he added.

The movie is jointly produced by Venkat K. Narayana and Yash under KVN Productions and Monster Mind Creations. The makers are yet to confirm the lead actress of the movie.
