A blockbuster opening doesn’t guarantee a blockbuster run. Yash’s *Toxic: A Fairy Tale For Grown-Ups* proved that on Day 2, as its Hindi collections nearly halved overnight. With a crucial extended weekend now on the line, the film’s box office fate is genuinely up in the air.

## Breaking Down the Numbers

According to early trade estimates, *Toxic* minted between Rs 18-20 crore nett on Day 2 in Hindi — down sharply from its Rs 50 crore opening. That’s a 60% single-day drop, a steeper fall than what a film of this scale would typically want to see this early. The two-day Hindi cume now sits around Rs 70 crore nett, with actuals expected to be confirmed later.

| Day | Box Office |
| --- | --- |
| Day 1 | Rs 50 crore |
| Day 2 | Rs 18-20 crore (est.) |
| **Total** | **Rs 70 crore nett** |

## Why the Extended Weekend Is Make-or-Break

Trade trackers are now watching Friday closely, with early indications suggesting another dip is likely before the film heads into its extended weekend — boosted by the Raksha Bandhan holiday. Based on current trends, the movie is projected to close its 5-day opening stretch around Rs 110 crore nett in Hindi. Whether it hits that mark, or falls short, will heavily shape how the film is perceived for the rest of its theatrical run.

## The Bigger Picture for Yash

*Toxic* marks Yash’s return to the big screen after a four-year gap, and the pressure to deliver a strong hold is real given the film’s massive budget. Looking ahead, his next major release, *Ramayana*, is set for a grand theatrical release this Diwali 2026 — making *Toxic’s* performance an early gauge of his current market pull.
