Yash’s much‑anticipated film Toxic has crossed the Rs 200 crore mark domestically and has amassed about Rs 304.05 crore worldwide after six days in theatres, but its box-office momentum has weakened sharply, with collections plunging 67.6% on Day 6. The steep day‑on‑day drop follows a downtrend observed through the first week, prompting questions about the film’s staying power despite its star cast of Yash, Nayanthara and Kiara Advani.
Industry trackers report that Toxic cleared the Rs 200 crore threshold in India by Day 5 even as weekend-to-weekday declines set in, and by Day 6 the worldwide tally crossed the Rs 300 crore mark to reach roughly Rs 304.05 crore. Trade coverage frames the performance as a mixed commercial outcome: a strong headline number tempered by rapid erosion in daily receipts after the opening days.
Critical reaction has been divided. Some reviewers and outlets have argued that the film’s editing undercut its impact-one analysis bluntly described elements as having been “murdered on the edit table,” pointing to pacing and structural issues that may have dampened word‑of‑mouth. At the same time, several filmmakers and peers have publicly praised the project: the director of Googly was reported to be moved to tears after watching Toxic, and the maker of Rukmini Vasanth’s Sapta Sagaradaache Ello called the film “brave,” highlighting that industry response is not uniformly negative.
Taken together, the numbers and commentary suggest Toxic opened strongly but faces a challenging run ahead unless it sustains audience interest through positive word‑of‑mouth or expanded ticket sales. For now, the film’s commercial milestone is notable, but the sharp midweek fall underscores how critical reception and audience reaction can quickly influence box‑office trajectories.
