The first single from the much-anticipated film Toxic: A Fairytale for Grown-Ups, titled Tabaahi, has been released. The track, featuring Yash and Kiara Advani, was launched on March 2, 2026, and quickly gained attention for its emotive music and lyrics. However, there is one major twist: while fans were eagerly anticipating a visual accompaniment, the music video for Tabaahi was not released alongside the audio.

The song is available in multiple languages, including Hindi, Kannada, Telugu, Tamil, and Malayalam, broadening its appeal across diverse audiences. The music composition by Vishal Mishra has been paired with lyrics from various celebrated writers: Raj Shekhar for the Hindi version, Yogaraj Bhat for Kannada, Ramajogayya Sastry for Telugu, Vignesh Shivan for Tamil, and Rafeeq Ahammed for Malayalam. Despite the impressive language reach, the absence of the music video has led to a wave of online disappointment from fans, who have been eagerly awaiting fresh visual content since the release of the film's posters and teasers.

The Tabaahi audio track has been well-received for its melodic appeal, with social media reactions highlighting how much fans appreciate the song itself. However, many have voiced their frustration over the lack of video content, especially after teasers that showcased intense action sequences and glimpses of Yash's striking on-screen look. Fans were hoping for a full visual experience, which they feel would complement the emotional depth of the song.

The film Toxic: A Fairytale for Grown-Ups has already built significant buzz with its two teasers, which depict a violent, action-heavy world. The first teaser introduced the dark nature of the film, while the second revealed Yash in a beardless look, sparking further intrigue about his dual roles in the film. This tension between anticipation and delay is driving up the excitement for the official trailer, scheduled for release on March 8, 2026.

This upcoming trailer will likely provide more clues about the film's storyline, though filmmakers have kept details under wraps to maintain suspense. The movie marks Yash's return to the big screen after four years, following the massive success of KGF: Chapter 2. In Toxic, Yash will play dual roles as Raya and Ticket, while Kiara Advani will star as Nadia. The ensemble cast also includes Nayanthara, Huma Qureshi, Tara Sutaria, Rukmini Vasanth, Tovino Thomas, Akshay Oberoi, Darrell D’Silva, and Sudev Nair.

Directed by Geetu Mohandas, Toxic has been filmed simultaneously in English and Kannada, and produced by Venkat K Narayana and Yash under the banners of KVN Productions and Monster Mind Creations. The filmmakers have strategically avoided revealing too much about the plot, preferring to build anticipation through limited teasers and the song releases.

Scheduled for release on March 19, 2026, Toxic will face off at the box office with Dhurandhar The Revenge, directed by Aditya Dhar and starring Ranveer Singh. The stage is set for a high-profile clash, making the film's opening highly anticipated not only for its storyline but for its potential to dominate the box office as well.
