Toxic: A Fairytale for Grown-Ups has been one of the most talked-about upcoming films ever since Rocking Star Yash announced his return to the big screen. Slated for a 2026 release, the film has been keeping fans curious by revealing details one step at a time. After Yash’s striking first look created waves earlier this year, the makers have now dropped the first look of Kiara Advani as Nadia.
Kiara Advani appears in a completely fresh avatar in Toxic, marking an interesting shift in her career. Over the years, she has balanced emotional dramas with big-ticket entertainers, but Nadia seems to push her into a layered character. Directed by Geetu Mohandas, the film places Kiara in a raw, intense world that looks far removed from her earlier roles.

Kiara’s Look As Nadia: Glamour With Hidden Depth
Kiara’s first look poster is visually striking at first glance. She stands against a colorful, circus-like backdrop, dressed in a glamorous outfit that instantly draws the eye. Her expression carries sadness, pain, and quiet strength, hinting that Nadia’s story is far from cheerful. The contrast between the bright setting and her emotional state suggests a character shaped by loss and inner conflict. It’s clear that Nadia is not just about style—there’s serious substance behind the look.
