The makers of Yash's upcoming movie 'Toxic' have constructed an expansive and meticulously detailed set on the outskirts of Bengaluru, spanning 20 acres. This set authentically recreates the 1940s era, reflecting the film's historical setting.

The star-studded cast, including Yash, Nayanthara, Kiara Advani, Tara Sutaria, and Huma Qureshi, are actively participating in the shoot. A source told Mid-Day: "The production design team has created a world authentic to the 1940s. The team has been working at a breakneck pace. While Geetu has shot many crucial portions featuring Yash, she has also filmed scenes with Kiara Advani, Nayanthara, Tara Sutaria, and Huma Qureshi."

In addition to the stars, a crew of over 1,000 members are taking part in the shoot. Also,450 actors have been hired along with 300 foreign support actors joining the cast for key sequences. Another source mentioned, "Geetu has roped in 450 actors, who are shooting intermittently in this schedule. About 300 foreign support actors have been called in for a crucial sequence. A part of the shoot was being done outdoors, and due to heavy rain, filming had to be halted many times. But the cast and crew are fully committed and have been putting in multiple all-night shoots."

'Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-ups' will explore the dark and dangerous world of the drug mafia, with a focus on its reign from the 1950s to the 1970s. Reports suggest that Yash will portray a stylish gangster.

The project is a joint production between Yash's own banner, Monster Mind Creations, and KVN Productions.

Nayanthara is reportedly playing the role of the leading man's on-screen sister, while Kiara Advani takes on the part of his love interest.
