Yash And Kiara Advani's New Song Tabaahi From Toxic Sparks Mixed Reaction, Internet Says 'Zero Chemistry'

The makers of Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups have officially unveiled the film's first song, Tabaahi. The romantic track, featuring Yash and Kiara Advani, has added excitement to the anticipation surrounding the action drama and offered audiences a glimpse of the lead pair's on-screen dynamic. 

Soon after its release, the song sparked conversations across social media. Several viewers shared mixed reactions to the music video and questioned the chemistry between the lead actors.

One user wrote, "These straight-up trash lyrics are weak, song is eww, and the video looks painfully uninspired. Whoever approved this seriously needs better standards."

Another added, "It was flat; both have 0 chemistry, Yash is more concerned about looking stoic and Kiara not crossing the line. Song has no personality and looks similar to many music videos. If Vanga had directed this and shows how it's done."

"Felt like Yash tried to channel his inner Emraan Hashmi and the director tried to recreate a Haal e Dil vibe, but they missed the mark completely. An average song, to be honest," remarked a user.
