# Yash's **Toxic** Strikes Gold: Rs 600 Crore Pre-Business Amid Dhurandhar 2 Clash! Imagine a Kannada superstar's film raking in nearly **Rs 600 crore** from pre-sales alone, even before cameras roll on its epic showdown with Bollywood's hottest sequel. That's the electrifying reality for Yash's **Toxic**, as revealed by producer G. Dhananjayan, turning heads in the midst of a box office battle royale against Ranveer Singh's **Dhurandhar 2**.[1] Yash, the **KGF** icon whose Chapter 2 smashed global records at Rs 1,190-1,250 crore, is back with **Toxic**—a Geethu Mohandas-directed period gangster drama set for an Eid 2026 clash on March 19. While **Dhurandhar 2** (the sequel to the 2025 blockbuster that grossed over Rs 1,300 crore worldwide) is dominating early US advance sales with $33K-$55K from 1,953+ tickets across 151+ locations and 209 shows, **Toxic** is flexing serious muscle on the business front back home.[1][3][4][5] Producer Dhananjayan's bold claim highlights **Toxic**'s pan-India appeal, securing massive pre-business deals that signal blockbuster potential despite the hype around Ranveer Singh's spy thriller, which earned $13M+ in the US for Part 1.[3][5] This clash isn't just numbers—it's a festival of mass entertainers. **Dhurandhar 2** boasts a 159% jump in US pre-sales recently, with trailers dropping soon to fuel the fire, but **Toxic**'s Rs 600 crore war chest from non-theatrical rights, satellite, and digital deals positions Yash to conquer India.[1][6] Fans are buzzing: Will Yash's toxic charm outpace Ranveer's revenge saga, or will US trends flip the script as more screens open?[1][3]
