For Yash, Toxic is the film to follow his KGF triumph, so expectations are heavy. The cast already boasts names like Kiara Advani, Nayanthara, Tara Sutaria, and Huma Qureshi. Now, reports suggest Rukmini will also be seen in an important role. Even without an official confirmation, the talks alone have fans excited, and social media is buzzing over what she might bring to the story.
What’s interesting about Rukmini is the way she’s positioning herself. Instead of sticking to safe ground, she’s stepping into different industries, Kannada, Tamil, and now a pan-India setup. It signals ambition and confidence, showing she’s ready to move beyond regional stardom and test her presence on a wider stage.
Directed by Geethu Mohandas, Toxic is shaping up as a period gangster drama and is set for release on March 19 next year. With Rukmini’s name now in the mix, the curiosity has only doubled. For someone who’s still in the early stretch of her career, these moves hint at a solid rise one that audiences across languages will be keeping a close watch on.
