Rocking star Yash's next:
Recently, Yash announced his next film titled 'Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups'. Expected to be one of the most interesting collaborations of all times, the film brings together Internationally acclaimed director Geetu Mohandas and Rocking Star Yash, one of the most loved superstars from the country.
Sharing her thoughts about the film, Geetu Mohandas said,"I've always experimented with my style of narratives. Although Liars dice and Moothon were received well internationally, I've always craved to find my own audience in my country . This project stemmed from that thought. This film is an amalgamation of two opposite worlds and aesthetics in story telling coming together and I found Yash . Who is one of the most brilliant minds I have come across and I'm excited for our team to begin this magical journey.''
