All About Controversy

After the first look of Toxic: A Fairytale For Grown Ups was released, followed by the Yash and Kiara Advani starrer song ‘Tabaahi’, netizens trolled the actress for performing intimate scenes. Many dragged her husband, Sidharth Malhotra, and made memes out of it. However, a section of people questioned why Yash was not being questioned for doing such scenes, considering that he is also married and has children. 

As far as Toxic goes, it has been directed by Geetu Mohandas and also stars Huma Qureshi, Nayanthara, Tara Sutaria, Rukmini Vasanth, Akshay Oberoi, Sanjeeda Shaikh and more. The film is slated to be out on August 26.
