Bangalore, Feb 23 The makers of director Geethu Mohandas's eagerly awaited action entertainer 'Toxic: A Fairytale for Grown Ups', featuring actor Yash in the lead, on Monday, released the look of actor Sudev Nair in the film and disclosed that he plays a character called Karmadi in the film.

KVN Productions, the firm producing the film, took to its X timeline to share the first look poster of the actor. It wrote, "Introducing Sudev Nair as KARMADI in - A Toxic Fairy Tale For Grown-Ups. #Toxic In Cinemas Worldwide from 19-03-2026. #ToxicTheMovie #ToxicOnMarch19th."

It may be recalled that only recently, the makers had released a gritty and intense teaser of the film, much to the delight of fans and film buffs.

The 'Toxic' teaser reveals a massive, cinematic world that is both vibrant and brutal. Moving from a circus setting to an East Asian-inspired backdrop, the story spans different time periods with a dark, edgy atmosphere. Yet, beneath the brutal exterior and high-octane visuals, the teaser offers a glimpse into something deeper: a meticulous focus on storytelling and powerhouse performance that serves as the beating heart of this gritty universe.

At the centre of this cinematic storm stands Rocking Star Yash, undergoing a transformation that is nothing short of a total reinvention. His physical evolution serves as one of the film’s most powerful statements, showcasing a range of appearances—from a lean, agile silhouette to a massive, battle-hardened physique—all forged through relentless discipline.

It may be recalled that the makers have already disclosed the looks and character names of the actresses who are a part of the film. Nayanthara plays Ganga, Kiara Advani plays Nadia, Huma Qureshi plays Elizabeth, Rukmini Vasanth plays Mellisa, and Tara Sutaria stars as Rebecca in the film.

For the unaware, 'Toxic: A Fairytale for Grown-Ups' is slated to hit cinemas worldwide on March 19 this year.

Written by Yash and Geetu Mohandas and directed by Geetu Mohandas, 'Toxic: A Fairytale for Grown-Ups' has been simultaneously shot in Kannada and English, with dubbed versions planned in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, and several other languages.
