Toxic movie - spoiler filled thread....- Page 7

This film is terrible in every way possible. I had to rewatch KGF films to correct Yash's image or else I would have avoided his films in future. I want to see KGF 3, Rocky bhai once more.

Raja Krishnappa Bairiya - Once more on Big Screen.

You know I have been thinking about Raw,real , melancholic ache between Raya and Nadia...

You know that scene when Raya was set to marry Rebecca and still she went to meet Nadia who had stepped away and moved away from him simply bcz he could not live without her..Nadia tried to warn Raya but he was determined that he wanted that time with her ...and then they had this beautiful lovemaking moment...

And after that when they were sleeping cuddling...

Raya asked, "You have never asked me anything..Are you going to regret this?" It sounded almost like he was already beginning to regret the circumstances around it..not the intimacy, not Nadia, but the fact that he may not be able to give her the life she deserved..He knew the marriage to Rebecca was coming. He knew he was choosing a complicated path. And perhaps he was afraid that Nadia would eventually look back at this moment and feel that he used her or that she was only a temporary escape.

But Nadia's answer was beautiful because she didn't ask him for a promise.

She says, essentially:

"The Raya I have known and experienced is mine. Why would I regret loving him?"

That is such a mature understanding of love...

Without Raya telling her himself she understood the turmoil inside his heart...and she caressed his face and told him..

" You also don't regret anything ever"

She didn't pretend that Ganga doesn't exist. In fact, she acknowledged it herself:

"I know how much Ganga is important to you."

She understood the conflict.She knew she might not be the easy choice.She knew what was coming.

And yet she refused to call what they shared a mistake simply because life may not allow them to have a conventional future.

That's why Nadia's love felt so deep.

She wasn't trying to possess Raya.

She was simply accepting what existed between them.

This was probably the last time they were able to exist simply as Raya and Nadia.

No empire.No Ganga.No Rebecca.No obligations.

Just them.

And Nadia didn't demand anything from that moment.She lets it remain what it was:real.

That makes her later tragedy even more painful.

Because the woman who once said "I have no reason to regret the Raya I experienced" eventually had to live with years of absence and uncertainty.

And perhaps that is why Raya's question hurts so much in retrospect.

He asked whether she will regret him.She never did.

It is Raya who spent the rest of his life regretting that he couldn't give her more.

There was so much left unsaid between them. So much tenderness, longing, guilt and helplessness.

After watching some portions of raya and nadia in clips in social media again, I think director went towards the idea of forbidden love between both of them. Nadia is the one to make the first move and she knew he was engaged to rebecca, but the side glances she was giving while he was with rebaca and all should have made us cringe. But their chemistry is top notch.. how did she fall for him in first place they could have elaborated more. But lot of scenes cut i guess in editing.. the church scene being one example.. the small portions which they showed shines only because of their chemistry. Manmohaka song i thought it's for rebecca but it turned out it's for nadia

Honestly, there is nothing left to make in Toxic 2. They have completed Raya's story.

I don't need another chapter or another sequel to explain everything. The emotional arc is already there guilt, trauma, love, loss and the consequences of everything Raya became.

I just wish they had executed a few things better, because there was such a rich, emotionally devastating story underneath all that spectacle...But despite its flaws, it touched me. And sometimes that's enough.

I connected with these characters, their guilt, their trauma, their love and their losses in a way I didn't expect...

I think im going to try and watch. But all the kissing and violence I cant watch w family right ?
