After watching the trailer of Yash-starrer Toxic: A Fairytale for Grown-Ups, the actor praised Kiara’s performance, calling it “one of your bests”. He shared the trailer on his Instagram Stories on Saturday and sent his best wishes to Kiara and the team ahead of the film’s August 26 release.

Sharing the trailer, Sidharth praised the work that went into the film and expressed his excitement about seeing it on the big screen.

“The effort, the grind, the passion – it’s all going to show on the big screen. Going to be one of your bests, Ki!! Can’t wait to see the magic @geetu_mohandas @thenameisyash, you and the entire team has created. Best wishes team #Toxic. Looking forward to 26th Aug,” he wrote.

At the trailer launch in Bengaluru, Kiara spoke about working with director Geetu Mohandas and Yash and what playing Nadia meant to her.

“I truly believe Geetu and Yash manifested for me to be Nadia in this film. They saw it in me and believed that I was capable of this much before I knew that I was ready to take that fearless leap as an actor,” she said.

Kiara went on to thank the filmmaker and Yash for giving her a role she considers significant to her career.

“Today when I watch every little of our film, I just wanna say thank you. Thank you Geetu and thank you for giving me a part that I know will be very special for me as an actor in my journey,” she added.

The actor also reflected on how the experience could shape her future choices.

“I think there will be Kiara before Toxic and a Kiara after Toxic. What we’ve tasted is now going to make us want so much more, and we’re just going to be so much greedier with every film we step into,” she said.
