In a post shared on August 18, the actor reflected on how filmmaking often takes performers into worlds they have never encountered before.

Kiara said the project encouraged her to become more comfortable with unfamiliar situations and continue learning throughout the process.
“This one taught me to be comfortable with the unfamiliar, to stay curious, to keep learning and to find joy in the adventure of it all,” she added.

Her comments suggest that Toxic has been a creatively demanding experience and one that encouraged her to explore new aspects of her craft.
The actor’s behind-the-scenes posts have added to the growing anticipation surrounding the project, particularly because the film brings together a major cast and director Geetu Mohandas’ distinctive filmmaking voice.
