Speaking about this collaboration, Venkat K. Narayana, Chairman of KVN Productions, said: “‘Toxic’ demands a soundscape that’s bold, disruptive, and truly unforgettable. At KVN, we’ve always believed that music isn’t just an accompaniment to cinema — it’s the pulse of it. And in ZEE Music, we’ve found a partner who not only understands that vision but matches it with the same passion and scale. This collaboration is the start of a long-term relationship between KVN and ZEE — built on shared ambition and a collective hunger to push cinematic music into uncharted territories.
