The release of Yash’s highly anticipated film ‘Toxic’ has been postponed by four months due to the ongoing tensions in the Middle East.
The makers announced the new release date on Wednesday, March 4, confirming that the film will now hit theatres worldwide on June 4, 2026.
According to the announcement, the decision was taken considering the global reach of the film and the current geopolitical uncertainty that could affect its international market performance. The team felt that delaying the release would ensure the film receives the attention it deserves across global audiences.
Following the announcement, fans quickly reacted on social media, with many praising the decision taken by the actor and the production team.
One fan wrote, “Perfect Decision By Monster Mind Yash. Big Respect,” while another commented, “(heartbreak emoji) But good decision..in this current war situation,” and a third added, “Delay is fine… as long as the film comes out bigger, sharper, and worth the wait.”
Several users also expressed relief that the postponement would prevent a potential box office clash with Ranveer Singh’s upcoming film ‘Dhurandhar 2’, allowing both movies to perform strongly.
An X (formerly Twitter) user wrote, “That's A Good Decision. Both Will Get Solo Release and Both Will Cross 1000 cr Easily Now .... And That What we Want ....” Another commented, “Appreciate it. Both Dhurandhar and Toxic can earn good enough ..why ruin that being together. Good decision Yash”, while another added, “Sensible decision by Team Toxic. It will not affect both movies collections.”
However, some users speculated that the postponement might have also been influenced by the desire to avoid a direct box office clash with Ranveer Singh’s film.
Despite mixed reactions, many fans believe the delay could ultimately help the film achieve a bigger global release and stronger box office performance.
