Unhone mujhe iss paatra nibhane ka jo avkash diya, uske liye usse dhanyavaad kehta hu. Hindi seekhne ka abhi mauka mila. I think this is India's dream. Everybody who has been part of this film has come with one vision, one conviction—to put our story on the global platform. All of us are here keeping all our interests aside.

Yash on Toxic
In a previous interview with Fandango, Yash said the concept of
Toxic is ‘very layered.’ He added, “Once again, it's not a typical gangster action story. For the face value, it will look like a gangster movie with a lot of action, but it has got deep psychology and it's got very interesting aspects of human life where you can resonate with.” The actor believed his character has been presented in a unique way, that makes it even more exciting. Yash shared that director Geetu Mohandas has given a new take on a gangster film, and he enjoyed working on it.
Toxic is going to be a visual treat as well as something which makes a huge impact on audience psychology as well, confirmed Yash.
