It was only recently that the makers of Kannada superstar Yash’s upcoming film Toxic, directed by Geetu Mohandas, launched the project with a grand puja ceremony. However, just days after shooting commenced, a new photo from the film set has gone viral on social media.

Reportedly, a photo of Yash from the set of Toxic was leaked on social media platforms, seemingly taken by an insider. The photo quickly spread online, leading to disappointment among fans. The surprise of witnessing Yash’s new look has been somewhat spoiled, according to fans who are upset by the leak. 

In the leaked photo, Yash can be seen sporting a white blazer and the signature hat featured in the announcement poster’s silhouette. The actor is seen talking to another character who, according to fans, resembles business mogul Vijay Mallya. The pic appears to be set against the backdrop of a retro club. Interestingly, the woman beside Yash in the photo seems to be Huma Qureshi, who is rumored to be playing an important role in the film. 

Toxic team concerned

Meanwhile, the photo leak has caused concern among the makers of Toxic as they try to identify who leaked the image from the set. According to sources, the set had many people present on that particular day, and the team is still investigating the source of the leak. The team also thanked fans for reporting accounts that shared the photo online. “We are glad that fans on social media took it upon themselves to report the accounts sharing leaked images. This itself is a huge support,” a source from the team said. The makers are now planning to implement stronger measures, such as banning smartphones on set, to prevent further leaks.
