Toxic Poster Look Goes Viral: Yash's 'Raya' Stares Down the Storm in a White-Blast Action Frame

The moment the word “TOXIC” hits the top of the frame in that rough, distressed gothic style, you already know this isn’t going to be a soft, safe poster. It’s loud. It’s sharp. It’s built to stop your scroll.

What grabbed my attention instantly was the clean white background-almost too calm-while everything inside the scene is pure chaos: flying shell casings, dust in motion, coats whipping in the wind, and two men standing back-to-back like the world is coming for them from both sides.

Final Word

This isn’t a poster that politely introduces a movie.
It challenges you.

With TOXIC, the design language is clear: high fashion meets high danger. Two men. One frozen second. A storm of bullets in bright light. And a title that doesn’t blink.

If the film carries even half the intensity of this frame, audiences are in for something wild.
