Toxic song Manmohaka released: Yash romances Tara Sutaria and Kiara Advani; internet says Tabaahi is better | Watch

The makers of Yash's upcoming action drama Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups have unveiled a brand-new romantic track, Manmohaka—released as Madhosh in Hindi—offering fans another glimpse into the film's stylish world ahead of its theatrical release.

The song showcases Yash sharing romantic moments with Tara Sutaria and Kiara Advani, while also featuring Nayanthara in key sequences. Richly mounted visuals, lavish production design and sweeping cinematography dominate the music video, continuing the film's glamorous aesthetic.

Yash's chemistry takes centre stage

Manmohaka presents Yash's character in an emotional and romantic light, contrasting with the gritty gangster avatar seen in the film's teaser.

The video highlights his relationships with Tara Sutaria's and Kiara Advani's characters through dreamlike visuals, exotic locations and elaborate choreography. The multilingual track has been released across Hindi, Kannada, Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam.

Internet compares it with Tabaahi

Despite appreciating the visuals, several fans on social media compared the latest release with the film's earlier song, Tabaahi.

A section of viewers felt Tabaahi had a stronger melody and greater emotional impact, with comments suggesting it remained the standout track from the film's album so far. Others, however, praised Manmohaka for its softer romantic tone and cinematic presentation.

The mixed reactions quickly made the song trend online, with fans debating which of the two tracks better captures the mood of the film.

Building anticipation for Toxic

Directed by Geetu Mohandas, Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups marks Yash's first major release since the blockbuster KGF franchise.

The film boasts an ensemble cast including Kiara Advani, Nayanthara, Tara Sutaria, Huma Qureshi and several international actors. It is one of the most anticipated pan-Indian releases of the year and is expected to release in multiple languages.

With Manmohaka now out, the makers have intensified promotions as fans eagerly await the film's release.
