Yash’s Toxic targets ticket price hikes in Andhra Pradesh cinemas
Special 6 AM shows may be priced at ₹500 per ticket
Regular screenings could see a ₹50-₹100 increase
The move follows strong audience turnout for recent films
Yash’s upcoming film Toxic is set to hit cinemas on August 21, and the buzz around this pan-Indian gangster drama is already strong. Following his blockbuster run in previous action roles, Yash now teams up with director Geetu Mohandas for a project that has drawn attention across multiple states. The film features a notable ensemble cast including Nayanthara, Kiara Advani, Huma Qureshi, Tara Sutaria, and Rukmini Vasanth, adding to its star power.
According to reports, the makers of Toxic are pursuing a ticket price hike in Andhra Pradesh, a move reminiscent of the strategy used for Kantara Chapter 1. If approved, special 6 AM shows are expected to be priced at ₹500 per ticket, while regular screenings could see an increase of ₹50 to ₹100 over standard rates. This approach comes at a time when Andhra Pradesh theatres have recently seen robust attendance, partly attributed to affordable ticket pricing.
The decision to seek higher rates is being closely watched, as it could influence audience turnout for one of the most anticipated releases of the season. While there is significant excitement around the film’s release, how viewers in Andhra Pradesh respond to the revised pricing will be a key factor to monitor once Toxic opens in theatres.
