The film which marks Yash’s return to the big screens after the blockbuster KGF: Chapter 2 is expected to be a story revolving around a cartel based in Goa. The film’s official announcement was made earlier this year on Yash’s birthday.
Initially, reports had suggested that Kareena Kapoor Khan was set to play the lead role in Yash’s movie, likely as his elder sister. However, recent reports indicated that the Jab We Met actress had opted out of the project with the makers roping in Nayanthara for the same.
Furthermore, with Kiara Advani set to share the screen with Yash it seems that Tara Sutaria and Shruti Haasan are also cast to play undisclosed roles. Interestingly, Haasan had also sung the theme track from the film’s announcement video.

Yash was recently spotted in some viral pictures flaunting his new look for the upcoming movie. The short crop hairstyle had already caught the attention of many with stylist Alex Vijaykanth confirming the transformation for Toxic.
The stylist had posted on his official Instagram handle calling it a “custom pompadour” for the Rocking star. He also expressed how he took the iconic long hair look to a more shorter, edgier, and intense style.
The upcoming movie which also has the tagline “A Fairy Tale for Grown Ups” is slated to hit the big screens on April 10, 2025.
