Actor Yash praises Kiara Advani’s professionalism and commitment while shooting for the film Toxic, at the movie’s album launch. Speaking about her work, he describes her as “such a professional actor” and says he and director Geetu Mohandas were concerned because the production demands were high.

Yash says Kiara continued working while pregnant and that she showed “100% commitment” even after she was carrying the baby. He adds that he and Mohandas protected her during the shoot, noting that they functioned like “bouncers and bodyguards.” He also recalls asking Kiara about her experience with a rain sequence, saying she had not done one in her career before the film, and that she still dedicated herself to the physically demanding scenes.

Both outlets link Kiara’s pregnancy to the film’s production planning, including shifting parts of the shoot to accommodate her schedule. They also note that Kiara and Sidharth Malhotra welcomed their daughter Saraayah Malhotra in July 2025. The reports focus mainly on Yash’s remarks, with emphasis on her professionalism and the steps taken to support her during filming.
