The postponement news of Yash’s Toxic has taken fans and cinephiles by surprise. The gangster action drama will now arrive in cinemas on June 4. However, the team of Bollywood biggie, Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai, is very much upset with this sudden development.
The film starring Varun Dhawan, Mrunal Thakur, and Pooja Hegde is slated for release on June 5. According to a report in Bollywood Hungama, the Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai team had learned about Toxic’s postponement only after Yash posted the news on social media.
The report mentioned, “If a film has already locked a release slot and another filmmaker plans to come on the same day, it’s customary to inform the makers who had taken the date first. In this case, that didn’t happen. Varun Dhawan, director David Dhawan, and producer Ramesh Taurani learned that Toxic was arriving in the same week as their film only after actor Yash posted the news on social media. The team is upset.”
Ramesh Taurani said that their team hasn’t yet decided what to do next. It remains to be seen whether or not the Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai team sticks to the initially announced date.
