Kannada star Yash has finally announced his follow-up to KGF: Chapter 2, named ‘Toxic’.
Directed by Geetu Mohandas ‘Toxic’ has been described in a recently released video as ‘a fairy-tale for grown-ups’. The short video doesn’t reveal any footage from the movie, nor does it give an idea of what the film’s plot will be, but through a series of animated visuals, it gives a sense of the tone.
The short video also showed the Joker cards, explosions, and a quick glimpse of a man wearing a hat, smoking a cigar, and brandishing what looks like a Tommy gun. It looks like the movie will continue the blockbuster trend of major movie stars playing violent men, following in the footsteps of Kamal Haasan’s Vikram, Vijay’s Leo, and most recently, Ranbir Kapoor’s Animal.

While this is in line with Yash’s past work – the KGF blockbusters feature him as a violent avenger Yash is also expected to reprise his role in the third installment of the KGF series. Director Prashanth Neel recently told Pinkvilla that the script for KGF 3 has been locked, and joked that even though he might not return as the director, there’s no way that Yash won’t be back. Part one of KGF became the highest-grossing Kannada film at the time, with a Rs 250 crore global gross. KGF 2 was an even bigger hit; the movie made over Rs 1200 crore worldwide and established Yash as a pan-India star.
