Dil Raju challenges people spreading rumors on Toxic
on Feb 12, 2026
Ever since the news broke that Dil Raju’s Sri Venkateswara Creations bagged the Telugu distribution rights for Yash’s Toxic for a record-breaking ₹120 crore, the industry has been buzzing with both awe and skepticism.
While many are celebrating it as the highest-ever acquisition for a non-Telugu film in the region, a section of the trade and social media has been questioning the authenticity of the figure. Rumors have been circulating that the numbers are inflated to create artificial "hype" for the film’s pre-release business, especially with competition from Dhurandhar 2 looming on the same release date.
Never one to back down from a challenge, veteran producer Dil Raju at his Markandeya film from Dil Raju Dreams, he answered to these rumors. Known for his straightforward attitude, Raju stated that he is ready to show his bank statement to anyone spreading baseless rumors about the deal.
He clarified that the ₹120 crore figure is not true and he did a legitimate advance-on-commission agreement for high amount, reflecting the massive market Yash has built in the Telugu states post KGF.
For a distributor who has seen it all, this "bank statement" challenge is a bold move to silence critics and maintain transparency in the high-stakes world of film distribution. With Toxic slated for a grand release on March 19, 2026, it seems the off-screen drama is becoming just as intense as the film’s high-octane action.
