The visual universe of Toxic – A Fairytale for Grown-Ups continues to expand, and the latest character reveal has only heightened anticipation. The makers of the much-awaited pan-world film have unveiled a brand-new poster introducing Rukmini Vasanth as Mellisa, offering audiences another intriguing glimpse into the film’s layered narrative.
Headlined by Yash, Toxic has been steadily rolling out character posters, each adding depth to its ensemble. With previous reveals featuring Kiara Advani as Nadia, Huma Qureshi as Elizabeth, Nayanthara as Ganga, and Tara Sutaria as Rebecca, the introduction of Mellisa adds yet another compelling layer to the story.
Set against the backdrop of a glamorous 1960s-style party, the new poster captures Mellisa navigating through revelry with calm intensity. While chaos and celebration surround her, the character’s composed stride and sharp gaze hint at purpose, control, and an inner world far removed from the surface spectacle. – Yash Starrer Toxic Reveals Rukmini Vasanth as Mellisa
Director Geetu Mohandas on Rukmini Vasanth
Director Geetu Mohandas shared glowing words about Vasanth’s approach to her craft. According to Mohandas, what sets the actress apart is her intellectual engagement with a role. Rather than merely delivering lines, she absorbs, questions, and explores motivations with curiosity, allowing her performances to grow organically.
The filmmaker further noted that Vasanth’s strength often lies in restraint, adding that her screen presence is defined as much by silence as by dialogue. Between takes, Mohandas often observed the actress quietly jotting down observations in her journal, documenting thoughts, emotions, and fleeting moments from the set. – Yash Starrer Toxic Reveals Rukmini Vasanth as Mellisa
