Kannada star Yash has revealed exciting details about his highly anticipated films Ramayana and Toxic, confirming major updates that have thrilled fans across the country.
Speaking about Ramayana, Yash confirmed that his character Ravana will not share screen space with Ranbir Kapoor’s Rama in the first installment. The actor, who plays the powerful demon king in Nitesh Tiwari’s two-part mythological epic, explained that this creative decision stays true to the narrative structure of the original epic.
Yash Ramayana Part 2 Will Feature the Epic Rama-Ravana Confrontation
According to Yash, Rama and Ravana remain in separate kingdoms during the early phase of the story, meaning fans will have to wait until the second part to witness the much-anticipated confrontation between these two iconic characters.
The film is being mounted on a grand scale and is scheduled for release during Diwali 2026 and 2027. Alongside Yash and Ranbir Kapoor, the film also stars Sai Pallavi as Sita.
Notably, the project is also being co-produced by Yash’s production banner, Monster Mind Creations. Yash emphasized that the team is committed to presenting Ramayana in the best possible way, making it one of the most ambitious Indian cinematic projects in recent years.
Toxic Shot in English, Not a Routine Gangster Film
The actor also opened up about his other ambitious venture, Toxic, and his comments have only increased the buzz surrounding the project.
Calling Toxic an equally ambitious film, Yash revealed, “For the first time, we shot Toxic in English as well.” He clarified that the film is not a routine gangster action drama.
Instead, Yash described it as a story layered with deep psychology and a compelling exploration of human life. He praised director Geethu Mohandas for bringing a fresh perspective to the gangster genre.
According to him, while he has portrayed gangster-like roles before, this character will stand apart because of its emotional depth, layered writing, and multiple shades. The film is set for an IMAX release on March 19, making it a massive theatrical experience.
With both Ramayana and Toxic promising unique cinematic experiences, Yash is set for an exciting phase in his career.
