Yash-starrer Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups continued its theatrical run on Day 4, taking its worldwide box office collection beyond the ₹255 crore mark despite recording another decline in its India net earnings. The film, which opened to strong numbers and generated significant attention ahead of its release, has experienced a steady slowdown in collections over the subsequent days. Even with the drop, the overall worldwide tally has remained substantial enough for the action drama to cross another major milestone during its opening weekend.

The fourth day of the film's theatrical run coincided with a weekend, which generally provides movies with an opportunity to register stronger footfalls. However, Toxic did not witness the expected jump in its India net collection and instead recorded a slight dip compared with the previous day. The decline marks a contrasting trend to its record-breaking opening, when the film benefited from considerable anticipation surrounding Yash's return to the big screen. The latest figures indicate that while the film continues to attract audiences, its momentum has moderated after the initial surge.

Despite the day-to-day fall, Toxic has maintained a strong cumulative performance across domestic and international markets. The film has now crossed the ₹250 crore worldwide milestone, with its global gross standing at more than ₹255 crore by the end of Day 4. The achievement gives the film a sizeable early lead in its theatrical run and places it among the notable performers of the period. Its international earnings have also contributed to the worldwide total, helping offset some of the moderation visible in its domestic daily figures.

The milestone has also brought Toxic past the lifetime worldwide haul of Mohanlal-starrer Drishyam 3, according to the reported box office figures. The comparison is significant because Mohanlal's franchise has a strong following, while Yash has built a major pan-India audience following the success of the KGF films. However, lifetime comparisons made this early in a theatrical run can change as the film continues to collect over subsequent weeks. The eventual standing of Toxic will depend on how well it manages to sustain audience interest after its opening phase.

Yash's presence remains one of the major factors behind the film's strong initial performance. Following the enormous success of KGF: Chapter 2, expectations surrounding his next release were high, with audiences closely tracking the film's opening figures. Toxic represents another major project in the actor's career and has been positioned as a large-scale action drama aimed at audiences beyond the Kannada-speaking market. The film's performance across multiple territories is therefore being closely watched as an indicator of its long-term theatrical potential.

At the same time, the continuing decline in daily collections is an important factor for the film's box office prospects. A strong opening can establish a substantial initial total, but sustained collections over the first week are generally crucial for determining whether a movie can translate that opening into a major theatrical success. Toxic will need to stabilise its weekday numbers and attract audiences beyond its initial fan base if it is to maintain its momentum. The response in coming days will provide a clearer picture of whether the film can convert its strong opening into a longer-running box office performance.

For now, crossing ₹255 crore worldwide in just four days gives Toxic a strong start despite the downward movement in its daily collections. The film has already passed the ₹250 crore milestone and moved ahead of Drishyam 3 in terms of the reported lifetime worldwide haul. Its next challenge will be to sustain collections through the crucial weekdays and build on its early worldwide total. With Yash's popularity continuing to draw attention and the film still in its first week, its final box office outcome will depend largely on how effectively it holds audiences in the days ahead.
