Huma Qureshi says Yash has poured his heart into ‘Toxic’
In an interview with AVP Live, while discussing ‘Toxic: A Fairytale for Grown-Ups’, Huma revealed that she had already watched an early cut of the film and was deeply impressed by what she saw. The actor especially applauded Yash’s commitment to the ambitious action drama.”I think since I have worked with Yash in this film, I have become a bigger fan of his. Earlier I used to think that he is a massive star and has a big following. But when you see someone working and the way they work and the passion with which they work, I have learnt a lot from them.The actress continued, “I feel their thinking, Geetu’s thinking, all of our thinking is that there is no one who will come on the first date. The movie should come out well, whenever it should come. I think right now the whole team is working day and night to make sure that when audiences come to the theatre, they get the best experience ever.Qureshi continued, “I have seen a 8-9 minute cut. It’s not a 8-9 minute movie, it’s a cut where they have made a sequence of the entire film. And as an actor, I can tell you that I have never seen such visuals. Everybody in this film, we had a dinner recently, all the actors were there. There was so much love on that table. Because I feel this is a film where everyone has their own moment to shine. So that sense of competition that you are talking about, that is not there. Everyone knows that this is my place, this is my character and I have killed it in this scene. And everyone has that place and that moment and Yash has really outdone himself. So I think this will be the biggest treat that Yash fans will have. We can just promise you that whenever it’s out, and it will be out soon, it will blow you away.”
