Akshay Oberoi, Sudev Nair looks from Toxic released. Yash's action entertainer Toxic directed by Geetu Mohan Das is releasing on 19 March 2026.

Expectations are soaring on the project and in the meantime, the makers released the first looks of Akshay Oberoi and Sudev Nair who are playing important roles in the film.

Akshay is playing the role of Tony while Sudev Nair is playing the role of Karmadi in the film. Akshay&rsquo;s Tony feels ripped straight out of the 1950s. With long sideburns, a vintage silhouette, and unmistakable old-world swagger, he arrives not merely as a man who has witnessed violence, but as someone who has mastered it, suave yet menacing.

Sudev Nair, on the other hand, steps into the chaos as Karmadi, a gritty, grounded force with a commanding presence. With his flat cap pulled low, a sharply set moustache, steady and unreadable eyes, and a gun in hand, Karmadi exudes a quiet intensity that speaks louder than words or action.

Geetu Mohan Das about Sudev posted&nbsp; &ldquo;This journey would have been much tougher without the right casting for Karmadi. I needed someone who could be present and quietly supportive of the film, and Sudev made it effortless. Having worked with him before, I knew the depth of his talent, and once again, he reminded me why I value him so highly. His craft is powerful yet understated, and he committed himself not just to the role but to the entire journey of our film. He brought a quiet strength to every frame &mdash; depth without display, emotion without excess &mdash; and on set, he led gently, simply by example. I believe talent alone doesn't take you far &mdash; good people do. And Sudev is not just here to stay, but to truly thrive (sic)."

About Akshay Oberoi she posted "Working with Akshay has been one of those rare experiences that reminds me why I enjoy directing actors so much. What sets him apart immediately is his curiosity. He doesn&rsquo;t approach a script passively; he interrogates it in the most thought-provoking way. He asks questions not to intellectualize the work, but to deepen it. He wants to understand the emotional architecture of a scene &mdash; what precedes it, what it costs, what it leaves behind. As a director, you don&rsquo;t have to pull him toward the truth; he&rsquo;s already searching for it. Akshay genuinely enjoys acting. Even in the most intense, complex moments, there&rsquo;s a sense of discovery in him. Watch out for this talent because he&rsquo;s gonna kill it.&rdquo;

As you move forward, you reinvent or transform, and that comes with time. That\'s a very natural process.
