The postponement of Yash’s much anticipated film Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown ups has triggered a heated conversation on social media, with many fans of Ranveer Singh claiming that the film stepped back to avoid clashing with Dhurandhar 2.
The makers recently announced that Toxic will now release on June 4, 2026 instead of its earlier March 19 release date. According to the official statement, the decision was taken due to rising tensions in the Middle East which have affected cinema operations in several Gulf regions, an important market for the film’s global rollout.
However, soon after the announcement, social media users began drawing their own conclusions. A section of Ranveer Singh fans quickly took to X to claim that the postponement had more to do with the growing buzz around Dhurandhar 2. Many posts mocked the situation, suggesting that the makers of Toxic did not want to risk a box office clash.
Some viral tweets even joked that the Middle East tension was only an excuse, while others said the makers were simply playing it safe. Memes and reaction posts soon flooded timelines, turning the postponement into a trending topic among movie fans.
At the same time, supporters of Yash defended the decision, pointing out that Gulf territories play a crucial role in overseas collections for big Indian films. They argued that delaying the release to ensure a smoother worldwide rollout was a strategic move rather than a sign of fear.
While the debate continues online, both films remain among the most talked about projects of the year. With massive fan bases backing Ranveer Singh and Yash, the conversation around Dhurandhar 2 and Toxic is only expected to grow stronger in the coming months.
For now, audiences will have to wait and see how the box office battle eventually unfolds.
