Toxic worldwide box office collection day 6: Geetu Mohandas’ Yash-starrer Toxic had everything going for it when it released last week. It had one of the biggest openings for an Indian film and broke several advance booking records. The buzz, however, lasted all of a day. Negative reviews and bad word-of-mouth have ensured that the film has been in free fall ever since. Monday was when it all came tumbling down, and the film crashed hard, having been reduced to single-digit collections at both the domestic and international box offices.

Toxic box office update
Toxic had a great start pan-India, exceeding expectations. The film grossed over ₹140 crore worldwide on its opening day, the second-biggest start for a Kannada film after KGF Chapter 2. But thereafter, the film continued to suffer setbacks. After a lukewarm weekend, Toxic ended its extended five-day release with a domestic net haul of just over ₹214 crore. It needed a manic Monday to lift itself out of the doldrums. But on day 6, it was unable to do that. Toxic earned just ₹7.45 crore, a near-70% drop from its Sunday earnings, and almost 95% below its day 1 gross.
