Toxic: Nayanthara REVEALS why she usually stays away from film promotions, says ‘Yash just made a call’ · bollywoodlife.com

A famous Indian actress named Nayanthara usually does not go to movie promotional events.

But she made a special appearance at the trailer launch of a movie called Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups.

She went because her co-star Yash simply called her and asked her to come.

At the event, she affectionately called Yash 'Rocky Bhai' and said he worked very hard on the movie for four and a half years.

She said he gave up time with his family and his kids so he could focus on making the film.

Nayanthara also said very nice things about the movie's director, Geetu Mohandas, who took care of every actor on set.

She said her co-star Kiara Advani did one of the best jobs of her career in this movie, playing a character named Nadia.

Nayanthara initially did not want to be in the film, but she changed her mind after hearing the story.

The movie is a grown-up fairy tale, and it will come out in theaters on August 26, 2026.

“It’s not that I don’t want to attend promotional events; it’s just that I am not very good at it. I stay away from it, but this was special. Yash just made a call, and it was enough for me to attend the event.”
