American actor Kyle Paul has opened up about his experience of working for the highly anticipated Kannada-English movie Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown Ups. The film, directed by Geetu Mohandas, has KGF star Yash in the lead.

In a video message to fans, Paul, known for projects such as Blue Bloods (2010), John Carter (2012) and Gotham (2014), said he had a “really good experience on a movie set in India.” “I am filming a movie called Toxic. It’s 3:00 am in the morning and I just completed a scene,” he starts off in the video.

“The scene had really high emotions but then I had to speak an Indian language called Kannada. I had to be emotional and also think logically in all those words I couldn’t understand. My mind wasn’t working. My director was supportive,” said Paul.

“Geetu is adorable and sweet. I kept repeating my mistakes but the whole crew, including Geetu, cheered me on. It’s the best experience I have had on sets.”

Recently, Hollywood choreographer JJ Perry called the film “a banger.” “Was a pleasure working with my friend Yash on the film Toxic. Had a great run in India,” wrote Perry on Instagram. “I got to work with a lot of my dear friends from all over Europe. I can’t wait for everybody to see this one. It’s a banger! So proud of what we did,” he added.
