Yash’s much-awaited comeback film **“[Toxic](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt27530512/)“** just hit a major speed bump. After a solid opening weekend, the Hindi version of the film crashed hard on its first Monday, collecting just Rs 4 crore — a steep 70% drop from an already weak Sunday. With the six-day cumulative now standing at **Rs 118.50 crore nett**, the film’s box office momentum looks like it’s fading fast.

Directed by Geethu Mohandas, “Toxic” marked Yash’s return to the big screen after a four-year gap, and expectations were sky-high heading into release. But the numbers tell a more complicated story about how the film has actually performed once the initial hype wore off.

## Toxic: A Weekday Slide That Tells the Real Story

The steep drop on Day 6 is particularly telling. Weekday collections are usually the truest test of a film’s word-of-mouth, and a fall this sharp suggests audiences aren’t turning up in the numbers the film needed to sustain a long run. Trade watchers note that “Toxic” is now trending even lower than *Hanuman Ansh*, a considerably smaller film that still managed Rs 5 crore on the same day.

With momentum clearly slowing, “Toxic” is expected to wrap its extended first week at around Rs 125 crore nett before settling into a much quieter run as new releases start crowding theaters.

## Day-Wise Collections of “Toxic” (Hindi)

| Day | Box Office |
| --- | --- |
| Day 1 | Rs 50.00 cr |
| Day 2 | Rs 21.00 cr |
| Day 3 | Rs 17.00 cr |
| Day 4 | Rs 13.50 cr |
| Day 5 | Rs 13.00 cr |
| Day 6 | Rs 4.00 cr |
| **Total** | **Rs 118.50 cr nett** |

## Why the Drop Matters

A film opening at Rs 50 crore carries enormous expectations, and a decline this steep by Day 6 signals that the movie failed to hold audience interest beyond its opening rush. Industry analysts often use this kind of curve to judge whether a film will have long legs or fade quickly — and “Toxic’s” trajectory currently points toward the latter.

For context, strong word-of-mouth hits typically see collections stabilize rather than nosedive after the first weekend. This kind of 70% single-day fall usually reflects lukewarm audience reception rather than simple midweek fatigue.

## What’s Next for Yash and “Toxic”

Despite the underwhelming run, “Toxic” still boasts a stacked cast that includes Kiara Advani, Nayanthara, Rukmini Vasanth, Huma Qureshi, and Tara Sutaria. All eyes now shift to Yash’s much bigger upcoming project — a grand theatrical release of *[Ramayana](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramayana)* planned for Diwali 2026, which is expected to be a far larger box office event. Whether “Toxic” can recover any ground in its second week remains uncertain, but for now, the trend line isn’t in its favor.
