Yash himself noticed the disturbance during his speech. He paused to check on the safety of the students and inquired with the organizers about their condition. Once assured that there was no major issue, he resumed his address, but the incident caused concern among the crowd, especially since many students had moved dangerously close to the stage and climbed onto structures holding speakers and equipment.

The event’s overcrowding highlighted the importance of crowd control and safety measures at large-scale film promotions. Despite police warnings for students to step back and avoid overcrowding, many remained near the stage, increasing the risk of such accidents. The mishap has now become the main topic of discussion, overshadowing what was supposed to be a major celebration for Yash and the film Toxic.
