Overview
- Toxic opened to an extraordinary India Day‑1 of about Rs 101.10 crore but then saw a fast fall in daily receipts through Week 1 and into Week 2, according to Sacnilk figures reported across outlets.
- Trade trackers place the film’s India net near Rs 243 crore and its worldwide gross at roughly Rs 333–334 crore after Day 11, with a small Saturday uptick on Day 11 that did not reverse the overall slide.
- New competition has tightened screen counts and audience share, with Mirzapur: The Movie posting a strong debut and the low‑budget Hanuman Ansh delivering unusually large later‑week growth that eroded Toxic’s hold.
- Language performance varied: the Kannada version has been a meaningful contributor to recent daily takings while a shortened English/dubbed cut released in early September reportedly sold only about 450 tickets.
- Industry commentators note widely cited but unconfirmed budget estimates of Rs 500–1,000 crore and say the rapid domestic decay makes meaningful theatrical recovery unlikely, which could leave the film loss‑making unless ancillary revenues change the picture.
