I watched Toxic last night and honestly, the movie was mind-blowing. I initially wanted to see the dynamics between Yash and Kiara as it intrigued me from the beginning, and they did not disappoint.
The main negative point in this action-packed thriller film is that the 1st half is incredibly fast, without giving users the emotional depth which the script requires. However, the deep bond between Yash and Nayan, alongside the star-crossed lovers' dynamics between Kiara and Yash, brings genuine heart to the screen.
Kiara's entry completely disrupts the calculated path laid out by Ganga, setting off a massive chain reaction for a revenge drama. The second half shifts gears completely into a pure psychological thriller. It focuses heavily on the internal guilt that destroys the main protagonist from the inside, no matter how powerful and successful he becomes as he fulfills Ganga's wishes.
Yash, man, you are amazing! I have become a huge fan of your aura and screen presence. After KGF, taking on these kinds of subjects is really commendable. The actor in you shines so well. And Kiara is splendid-definitely one of her finest performances in this film.
The chemistry between Yash and Kiara is just too good. As for the negative reviews and trolls on the first day, I guess after KGF people expected a mindless action-masala film, but what they got is an intense action-psychological thriller. They were not able to understand it on the initial watch, likely due to the disappointment of their misplaced high expectations.
Huge respect to Yash for using his stardom to back such a unique subject. The initial backlash feels like paid negativity from rival star fans, similar to what happened during the release of dhurandhar. That final scene is unforgettable .How i wish Raya had his fairy tale. This movie is a masterpiece that will age like fine wine
