The public celebration coincides with the premiere of the teaser for Yash's upcoming movie, Toxic. The fact that the teaser will be shown on his birthday adds to the day's significance for both the actor and his fan base.

According to India Today, a source close to the film said, “Yash turning 40 is a huge moment for his fans, and the team felt there couldn’t be a better day to introduce the world of Toxic.”
The teaser's unique tone and visual style have been emphasised by the film's creative team. The source added, “The teaser is raw, stylish, and very different from anything audiences have seen him do before.”
In contrast to his other roles, Yash plays a stylised mobster in Geetu Mohandas' film Toxic. However, another source close to the production noted, “The idea was to reinvent Yash on screen. Toxic presents him in a darker, more complex space. The teaser will give a strong sense of the film’s mood and his character, without revealing too much.”

Toxic also features Kiara Advani, Tara Sutaria, Huma Qureshi, and Nayantara in addition to Yash, in the pivotal roles. The movie is scheduled to open in theatres on March 19.
