Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups is one of the highly anticipated films of the year. The posters and teasers have already created the hype and anticipation around the film.

Tabaahi video song out
On Tuesday, the film's team teased with a post that read: "What do you call a forbidden love that only exists in stolen time?", tagging Advani. She replied, "Tabaahi."
On Wednesday, the makers dropped the video song. Tabaahi is composed and sung by Vishal Mishra, with Hindi lyrics by Raj Shekhar. Yogaraj Bhat wrote the Kannada lyrics, Ramajogayya Sastry penned the Telugu version, while Vignesh Shivan and Rafeeq Ahammed wrote the Tamil and Malayalam lyrics.
Describing the song, Mishra called it unconventional. "Tabaahi isn't a love song in the conventional sense; it's love as wreckage, as surrender, as fire that doesn't ask permission. Toxic demanded music that could hold that intensity: epic and intimate at once," he said.
Heaping praise on Yash's performance, he added, "Yash Bhai brings a rare conviction to the screen that I tried to match note for note. Tabaahi, for me, was about chasing that raw, unfiltered pulse of love, the kind that consumes before it comforts."
