Yash Says Wife Radhika Won't Be Happy About Toxic Scenes
Yash is a very famous Kannada film star, known for the movie KGF: Chapter 2.
He has a new movie called "Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups."
In this movie, he acts in some bold scenes with actresses Kiara Advani and Tara Sutaria.
Yash talked about those scenes on a TV show called Aap Ki Adalat.
He said his wife, Radhika Pandit, will not be happy when she watches those scenes.
But he said she is not upset because she trusts him.
Radhika is also an actor, so she understands that acting is a job and that he is playing a character, not being himself.
Yash said almost every partner would feel uncomfortable seeing such scenes, but he explained that they are a crucial part of the film's story and that filmmaking is an art.
The movie, made for young people and about differences between generations, faced delays and criticism after its teaser and a song.
It will finally open in theatres on August 26.
Yash said on Aap Ki Adalat that his wife, actress Radhika Pandit, "won't be happy" watching his intimate scenes with Kiara Advani and Tara Sutaria in Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups.
He said Radhika trusts him and, as an actor herself, understands that on-screen performing is a job — "it's not her husband."
Yash admitted "every partner would feel uncomfortable" about such scenes but called filmmaking art, saying some scenes have to be recorded because even the next generation learns from them.
Directed by Geetu Mohandas, the film stars Yash in a dual role alongside Nayanthara, Kiara Advani, Tara Sutaria, Rukmini Vasanth and Huma Qureshi, and was made for Gen Z.
After multiple delays and controversy over its intimate scenes and the song "Tabaahi," the film releases in theatres on August 26 in six languages including Hindi, Telugu and Tamil dubs.

“I’ve also stepped out of my comfort zone. It’s not easy for me to do these things, but the story demands it, and it’s a crucial part of it. Of course, she (Radhika) won’t be happy about it, but that doesn’t mean she’s upset or anything, because she trusts me.”
