‘If my parents can’t watch it, I won’t do it’: Fans remind Yash of old vow amid Toxic row | Regional News

3 min readNew DelhiJul 3, 2026 03:04 PM IST Toxic, true to its title, has sparked plenty of controversy. Despite being directed by Geethu Mohandas and headlined by an ensemble cast featuring Nayanthara, Kiara Advani, Rukmini Vasanth, Huma Qureshi, and Tara Sutaria, both the film’s first teaser and its recently released release-date announcement have drawn criticism for what many viewers have called “vulgar” content. Ironically, there was a time when Yash had publicly stated that he would never perform a scene he wouldn’t feel comfortable watching with his parents. A decade later, many fans believe the actor has gone back on his own words. ‘Romantic scenes make me uncomfortable’ Long before KGF turned him into a pan-India superstar, Yash had already earned the title of “Rocking Star” in Karnataka with hits such as Googly, Gajakesari, and Mr and Mrs Ramachari, making him one of the highest-paid actors in the Kannada film industry. Around that time, during an appearance on actor Ramesh Aravind’s talk show Weekend With Ramesh, Yash admitted that romantic scenes made him extremely …

Veteran actor Dharmendra made his debut in Hindi cinema in the year 1960, and by his second decade in the movies, he had struck the right balance by appearing in some massy action films, as well as playing some nuanced roles in Bimal Roy and Hrishikesh Mukherjee’s films. In the early 1970s, Dharmendra was one of the most promising actors of Hindi cinema and writer Salim Khan first approached him with the idea of Zanjeer, the film that later changed the trajectory of Amitabh Bachchan’s career. Dharmendra was quite impressed with the film and had actually paid Rs 2,500 to buy the concept. In the book ‘Written by Salim-Javed’ by Diptakirti Chaudhuri, Salim shared that he came up with the “treatment” of Zanjeer even before he started his writing partnership with Javed Akhtar. Salim’s father, Abdul Rashid Khan, worked as a police officer and had spent a few years in the ravines of Chambal, which later served as an inspiration for Sholay as well. Salim’s idea for Zanjeer was sold to Dharmendra for Rs 2,500. …
