Yash’s Toxic has been steadily building its theatrical positioning well ahead of release, and the latest distribution move signals just how wide the makers intend the film’s footprint to be. In a significant update for the Hindi belt, Anil Thadani’s AA Films has come on board as the theatrical distribution partner for Toxic in North India and Nepal, strengthening the film’s pan India rollout across key territories.

The new partnership reunites Yash with AA Films after their previous collaboration on KGF: Chapter 1 and KGF: Chapter 2. With Toxic, the distribution strategy now expands further as the film aims for a large scale release across multiple languages and markets.
Confirming the acquisition, Anil Thadani, Founder of AA Films, said, “Toxic is a cinematic world built with rare ambition, conviction, and a goal to bridge Indian and international sensibilities. From the moment we engaged with the material, it was clear that this is a film designed for the big screen, with a scale of visuals, depth of storytelling, and technical finesse that Indian audiences across markets are hungry for today. Yash has consistently elevated the idea of a pan-India star, and with Toxic, he pushes that envelope even further by stepping into a space that feels both rooted and globally resonant.

Producers Call It A Key Step In Building A Nationwide Release
Producer Venkat K. Narayana, KVN Productions, also addressed the collaboration and positioned it as a crucial piece in mounting a large theatrical launch.
He said, “At KVN Productions, we approach cinema with the same seriousness, structure, and long-term vision that one would bring to any institution-building exercise. Toxic is a massive pan-Indian cinematic proposition that demands scale, discipline, and an exceptional distribution backbone. In Anil Thadani and AA Films, we have partnered with someone who understands this responsibility at a fundamental level. Anil Thadani is one of the key architects of the pan-India movement. Long before the industry began speaking the language of nationwide cinema, he was already bridging regions, markets, and audiences through landmark films. His ability to balance ground-level market intelligence with elite national showcasing makes him uniquely positioned to take a film like Toxic to audiences across North India and Nepal. Toxic represents the future of Indian cinema: content-led, technically uncompromising, culturally rooted, yet globally resonant. With AA Films sharing this journey with us, we believe the film will reinstate what Indian stories can achieve when backed by the right vision and infrastructure.”
