Reportedly, Toxic's makers are considering a fresh edit for its digital version after OTT offers reportedly fell to as low as Rs. 30 crore. Before release, the team had reportedly turned down Rs. 150 crore while seeking Rs. 200 crore, expecting the film's box-office performance to lift its value.

Geetu Mohandas' Toxic, starring Yash, Nayanthara, Kiara Advani, Tara Sutaria, Huma Qureshi, and Rukmini Vasanth, was touted to be one of the biggest hits of the year. However, that didn't happen, and after a fantastic start, the movie started dropping at the box office, and for now, it is a flop. The film's box office fate might affect its OTT deal, as before the release, the makers had reportedly not sold the film to any digital streaming platform.

A source told Bollywood Hungama that before the release, an OTT platform had offered the Toxic team a whopping amount of Rs. 150 crore for the post-theatrical digital streaming rights. But the makers wanted a higher amount of Rs. 200 crore. The source stated that Yash was confident that the movie would perform very well at the box office, and after the release, it might get a deal of Rs. 200 crore.

Only Rs. 30 Crore For Toxic OTT Deal?

The source further stated that now the makers are being offered only Rs. 30 crore for digital rights. The source said, "The digital players are now offering an amount as low as Rs. 30 crore for the post-theatrical streaming rights for all languages. The biggest offer has come from Zee 5." Reportedly, the makers are also contemplating a completely new edit for the digital version, hoping to get a higher amount from the OTT deal.

However, there's no official confirmation about Toxic's OTT deal.
