Toxic: First looks of Akshay Oberoi’s Tony & Sudev Nair’s Karmadi revealed
Toxic: First looks of Akshay Oberoi’s Tony & Sudev Nair’s Karmadi revealed
‘Toxic’ teases intense action and style with Akshay Oberoi as Tony, Sudev Nair as Karmadi, and Yash in a striking new avatar.
Bangalore: The world of Rocking Star Yash’s 'Toxic' just got more lethal, darker, and infinitely more stylish on Monday, with the film's makers officially unveiling the striking first look of actor Akshay Oberoi as Tony in the film.
Interestingly, the unit had, in the morning, released the first look of Sudev Nair as Karmadi in the film.
Akshay’s Tony feels ripped straight out of the 1950s. With long sideburns, a vintage silhouette, and unmistakable old-world swagger, he arrives not merely as a man who has witnessed violence, but as someone who has mastered it — suave yet menacing.
A post shared by Yash (@thenameisyash)
Equally compelling is Sudev Nair as Karmadi — a gritty, grounded presence ready to step into the chaos. Flat cap pulled low, moustache sharply set, eyes steady and unreadable, gun in hand, Karmadi carries a quiet intensity that speaks louder than action.
Speaking about Sudev, director Geetu Mohandas shared on social media:
A post shared by Yash (@thenameisyash)
“This journey would have been much tougher without the right casting for Karmadi. I needed someone who could be present and quietly supportive of the film, and Sudev made it effortless. Having worked with him before, I knew the depth of his talent, and once again, he reminded me why I value him so highly."
She further said, "His craft is powerful yet understated, and he committed himself not just to the role but to the entire journey of our film. He brought a quiet strength to every frame — depth without display, emotion without excess — and on set, he led gently, simply by example. I believe talent alone doesn't take you far — good people do. And Sudev is not just here to stay, but to truly thrive.”
The director also penned a post about working with Akshay.

She wrote, “Working with Akshay has been one of those rare experiences that reminds me why I enjoy directing actors so much. What sets him apart immediately is his curiosity. He doesn’t approach a script passively; he interrogates it in the most thought-provoking way. He asks questions not to intellectualize the work, but to deepen it. He wants to understand the emotional architecture of a scene — what precedes it, what it costs, what it leaves behind."
Stating that as a director, she didn't have to pull him towards the truth as he’s already searching for it, the director said, "Akshay genuinely enjoys acting. Even in the most intense, complex moments, there’s a sense of discovery in him. Watch out for this talent because he’s gonna kill it!”
The recently unveiled teaser has already amplified intrigue, clocking over 200 million views in 24 hours, while introducing Yash in a striking new, clean-shaven avatar as ‘Ticket’ — instantly sparking multiple theories of a possible dual role.
Written by Yash and Geetu Mohandas and directed by Geetu Mohandas, 'Toxic: A Fairytale for Grown-Ups has been simultaneously shot in Kannada and English', with dubbed versions planned in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, and several other languages — underscoring its global ambition.
Produced by Venkat K. Narayana and Yash under KVN Productions and Monster Mind Creations, Toxic is slated for a worldwide theatrical release on March 19 this year. The film also stars Nayanthara, Kiara Advani, Huma Qureshi, Rukmini Vasanth, and Tara Sutaria in pivotal roles.
