Toxic has recorded another decline in its Hindi box-office collections, with the Yash and Kiara Advani-led action drama estimated to have earned Rs 2.75 crore on its eighth day. The film’s Hindi India total now stands at around Rs 125.75 crore nett, according to trade estimates.
Yash’s Toxic is finding it increasingly difficult to maintain momentum at the Hindi box office. The Geethu Mohandas-directed action gangster drama witnessed another drop in collections on Wednesday, with the film estimated to have added Rs 2.75 crore nett to its India Hindi total.
With the latest numbers, Toxic’s eight-day Hindi collection is estimated at Rs 125.75 crore nett. The Wednesday figure represents a decline of around 30 per cent compared with the previous day, indicating that the film is losing pace during its second week.
Toxic Hindi box office: Day 8 collection drops to Rs 2.75 crore
Toxic opened strongly in the Hindi market, benefiting from the popularity of Yash and the anticipation surrounding his return to theatres. However, collections have fallen substantially after the opening stretch.
The film’s estimated Hindi earnings currently stand as follows:
| Day | Hindi Box Office Collection |
|---|---|
| Day 1 | Rs 50.00 crore |
| Day 2 | Rs 21.00 crore |
| Day 3 | Rs 17.00 crore |
| Day 4 | Rs 13.50 crore |
| Day 5 | Rs 13.00 crore |
| Day 6 | Rs 4.00 crore |
| Day 7 | Rs 4.50 crore |
| Day 8 | Rs 2.75 crore* |
| Total | Rs 125.75 crore nett |
*Day 8 is an estimated figure.
The sharp difference between the film’s opening-day performance and its weekday collections highlights the challenge Toxic faces in sustaining audience interest beyond its initial theatrical run.
Can Toxic cross Rs 140 crore in Hindi?
Based on the current pace, trade estimates suggest that Toxic could finish its Hindi theatrical run in the vicinity of Rs 140 crore nett. However, the final lifetime collection will depend on how the film performs over the coming days and weeks.
The arrival of new theatrical competition could put additional pressure on its collections. With Mirzapur also entering cinemas, Toxic will have to compete for screens and audience attention during an important phase of its run.
At this stage, the projected lifetime figure should be regarded strictly as a trade estimate rather than a confirmed final collection.
Toxic struggles to convert its strong opening into sustained business
The biggest challenge for Toxic has been its trajectory after the opening weekend.
The film began its Hindi run with an estimated Rs 50 crore on Day 1, followed by Rs 21 crore, Rs 17 crore and Rs 13.50 crore over the next three days. Collections remained at Rs 13 crore on the fifth day before dropping sharply during the following weekdays.
The trend suggests that while the film generated considerable initial curiosity, its theatrical momentum has not remained at the same level.
For a big-budget Yash vehicle returning after a lengthy gap, the post-opening performance has become an important factor in determining the film’s overall commercial outcome.
Yash returns to theatres after four years
Toxic marks Yash’s return to the big screen following a gap of approximately four years. The actor’s previous theatrical release was K.G.F: Chapter 2, which became a major commercial success and significantly expanded his pan-India popularity.
That success created substantial expectations around his next project. Toxic was consequently positioned as one of the major Indian releases built around Yash’s star power.
The film features an ensemble cast including Kiara Advani, Nayanthara, Rukmini Vasanth, Huma Qureshi and Tara Sutaria, alongside Yash.
What is Toxic about?
Directed by Geethu Mohandas, Toxic is an action-oriented gangster drama featuring Yash in the central role. The film combines crime, family and action elements within a period-inspired narrative.
The project attracted attention well before release because of its cast, scale and Yash’s return to theatres after KGF: Chapter 2.
While the Hindi market opened with significant numbers, the subsequent slowdown has made its second-week performance crucial to its eventual theatrical total.
Yash’s next film is Ramayana
Following Toxic, Yash is set to appear in Ramayana, one of the most anticipated Indian films currently in development.
The actor is expected to play an important role in the ambitious mythological project, which is scheduled for a theatrical release around Diwali 2026.
With Toxic marking Yash’s first major theatrical outing after KGF: Chapter 2, the performance of the film has been closely followed by trade observers and his fans. Its final Hindi lifetime collection will become clearer as the theatrical run progresses.
Toxic Hindi Box Office Verdict
At an estimated Rs 125.75 crore nett after eight days, Toxic has crossed a significant numerical milestone in the Hindi market. However, its steep decline after the opening phase means the film still has substantial ground to cover before its theatrical run concludes.
Trade projections currently place its Hindi lifetime collection around the Rs 140 crore mark, although the final figure could vary depending on its second-weekend and subsequent weekday performance.
Box-office figures used in this report are trade estimates and may differ from final figures reported by producers, distributors or exhibitors.
