The promotional rollout for Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups, the highly anticipated pan-India film headlined by Yash, has taken an unexpected turn with netizens accusing the latest poster featuring Tara Sutaria’s character Rebecca of looking artificially generated.
The film, directed by Geetu Mohandas and set for release on March 19, 2026, continues to gain attention as discussions around the authenticity of the poster intensify across social platforms.
Fans Split Over Poster Realism and Quality
Recently, film’s official Instagram and social feeds unveiled Tara Sutaria’s first look as Rebecca, adding to the series of character posters that previously introduced Kiara Advani, Huma Qureshi and Nayanthara. While the images were meant to build excitement, reactions quickly shifted as users began scrutinising the visuals.
Several social media commentators argued that certain elements of the poster, especially the way Sutaria is holding a revolver, appear “off” or unnatural, triggering speculation the artwork may have relied heavily on AI generation.
One Reddit thread shared by fans highlighted that the background and the hand-to-gun grip looked “weird” and “pretty much proves its AI,” with critics pointing to irregularities in lighting and anatomy. X posts also echoed similar sentiments with one user writing, “All posters of this movie are AI generated. Just look at how she is holding a revolver,” while another simply asked, “Is this really official?” before accepting the reveal.
Defenders of the poster argue the stylised imagery aligns with Toxic’s gritty, period gangster aesthetic, noting that many fans are still excited about the dramatic shift in Sutaria’s onscreen persona. Some praise the visual’s “different” vibe and its departure from conventional film posters, remarking that the unique approach may be intentional rather than a technical flaw.
