Kiara Advani seeks scene edits in Toxic

Reports suggest Kiara Advani requested makers to trim intimate scenes in Toxic after backlash over ‘obscene’ content in the film

New mom Kiara Advani will next be seen in Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups, marking her first project after welcoming her daughter, Saraayah Malhotra. The film also stars Yash, Tara Sutaria, Huma Qureshi and Nayanthara in key roles.

Toxic has already sparked backlash after a teaser showed Yash as gangster Raya engaging in a sexual act with a woman inside a car parked beside a cemetery, drawing criticism. Amid this, Kiara has reportedly asked the makers to trim down her intimate scenes.

Requests makers to trim down intimate portions

According to a report in Gulte, Kiara has requested Yash and Toxic director Geetu Mohandas to cut down certain intimate portions from the film after watching the final output. Earlier reports claimed that the actress had shot a bold romantic sequence with Yash after being assured by Geetu that the scenes would remain within her comfort zone. However, after reportedly seeing how the sequence appeared on screen, she is said to have developed second thoughts regarding its presentation and length. Reports further suggest that Kiara has asked the makers to either shorten the sequence significantly or tone it down in the final cut. These claims remain unverified, with no official confirmation from Kiara or the makers of Toxic.
