Actor Akshay Oberoi comments on the box-office performance of the film Toxic after it underperforms expectations. He says the outcome is “tough,” but addresses reports that Yash may have overshadowed director Geethu Mohandas.
Oberoi says he does not believe in blaming others for the film’s results and maintains that he is only directed by Mohandas. He also describes his rapport with Yash during the film’s post-production, while characterizing Yash as self-driven and independent—stating that Yash “only believes in himself” and “doesn’t wait for anybody.”
The outlets also note the film’s scale and financial framing. Times of India reports Toxic earns about Rs 300 crore against a reported budget of Rs 500 crore, providing context for the discussion around its underperformance. NDTV focuses more on Oberoi’s account of how he and Yash connect during post-production, while also covering his remarks aimed at clarifying the creative process.
