The team behind Toxic: A Fairytale for Grown-Ups marked director Geetu Mohandas's birthday with a special behind-the-scenes video, offering fans a glimpse into the filmmaker's work on the highly anticipated Yash-starrer.
Shared on the film's official social media handle, the video captures Mohandas in action on set, overseeing shoots, coordinating large-scale sequences and guiding the cast and crew through various stages of production. Alongside the footage, the makers wrote, "Behind every shot that hit different, every silence that said more than dialogue ever could, there she was! Happy birthday geetu_mohandas."
The video highlights Mohandas' hands-on approach to filmmaking, with the director seen monitoring scenes, discussing shots with her team and orchestrating complex action sequences. While the footage offers only a brief look at the production, it also hints at the scale and ambition of the project.
Fans were quick to react to the post, praising the filmmaker's dedication and expressing excitement about the upcoming film. The BTS footage provides a rare look behind the curtain of Toxic, a project that has remained largely under wraps despite generating significant buzz since its announcement.
The video also sheds light on the extensive effort that goes into mounting a film of this scale. From managing large crews to ensuring every creative detail aligns with the larger vision, Mohandas appears deeply involved in every aspect of the production process.
Toxic has consistently remained in the spotlight due to its star-studded cast and ambitious storytelling. Directed by Geetu Mohandas, the film stars Yash in the lead role alongside Nayanthara, Kiara Advani, Huma Qureshi, Rukmini Vasanth and Tara Sutaria.
Produced by KVN Productions and Monster Mind Creations, the film is expected to be one of the biggest releases in Indian cinema. While the makers have kept key plot details under wraps, every update from the production has generated significant interest among fans.
The latest birthday tribute not only celebrates Mohandas's contribution as a filmmaker but also builds anticipation for Toxic, which continues to be one of the most eagerly awaited projects on the horizon. With Yash leading the cast and Mohandas at the helm, audiences are keen to see what the team has in store when the film arrives in theatres.
