How did Yash react to Toxic's failure?
While talking about Toxic's failure on Prajavani’s YouTube channel, Jaidev said, "I haven’t met him since the release, but I have spoken to him twice on the phone. What else do you expect? I am a very small part of this movie. But I got very emotional after seeing the reviews and reactions on its release day. I got his phone call saying, don’t worry too much. Let’s leave it to the audience; it’s their wish. There is work to be done next. But I can hear the pain."
