The latest overseas agreement adds another layer to the film’s expanding reach, reflecting the growing interest surrounding the project even before promotional material has been unveiled.

Notably, the overseas deal with Phars Film applies exclusively to the Indian-language versions of Toxic, including Kannada, Hindi, Telugu, Tamil and Malayalam. The English version is not part of this agreement, highlighting the strong demand for the film’s Indian-language editions among international exhibitors.

The confidence surrounding Toxic is partly attributed to Yash’s established global footprint following the success of KGF: Chapter 2, which performed strongly across multiple overseas territories. That international exposure has helped set the stage for Toxic, which is now gearing up for a wide global release across most major markets, excluding a few territories.

Speaking about the collaboration, Ahmad Golchin, CEO & Founder of Phars Films, said, “With Toxic, our goal was to tell a story that resonates beyond borders. We are proud to bring this film to international audiences and to see its themes connect across cultures. This overseas release marks an important milestone for Phars Film, and we’re excited for viewers worldwide to experience the intensity and emotional depth of Toxic.”

Venkat K Narayana from KVN Productions added, “Toxic has been envisioned as a film that speaks a universal cinematic language, and for a vision of this scale, we needed a partner with extraordinary global strength and credibility. Phars Films has consistently demonstrated an unparalleled ability to position Indian cinema powerfully across international markets, and we are proud to join hands with them for what is truly a landmark overseas distribution deal. With their expansive reach and strategic expertise, we are confident that Toxic will open to audiences worldwide with the scale, impact, and momentum it deserves, setting new benchmarks for global releases from Indian cinema.”

Written by Yash and Geetu Mohandas and directed by Mohandas, Toxic has been shot simultaneously in Kannada and English, with dubbed versions planned in multiple Indian languages. The film features a strong technical team including cinematographer Rajeev Ravi, music composer Ravi Basrur, editor Ujwal Kulkarni and production designer TP Abid.

With key domestic and international distribution partnerships in place, Toxic continues to build anticipation ahead of its release.
