Rajkummar Rao and Sanya Malhotra headline Netflix’s quirky dark comedy Toaster, marking the first production from Rajkummar Rao and Patralekhaa’s banner, Kampa Film.
Mumbai, March 26, 2026: Most wedding gifts are exchanged with smiles and eventually forgotten. However, what happens when a wedding is called off — and someone refuses to forget their gift? That’s exactly where Netflix’s upcoming dark comedy Toaster begins.
Set to premiere on April 15, 2026, Toaster transforms an ordinary kitchen appliance into the centre of total chaos. What begins as a petty obsession soon spirals into a wildly unpredictable chain of events.
A Quirky Dark Comedy with an Unusual Premise
Directed by Vivek Das Chaudhary, Toaster follows a miser determined to retrieve his gifted toaster after a cancelled wedding. However, what seems like a simple mission quickly turns into absurd situations, eccentric characters, and complete mayhem.
At the same time, the film marks Patralekhaa’s debut as a producer under Kampa Film, making the project even more special. Additionally, Toaster brings Rajkummar Rao back to comedy, a genre audiences have always loved him in. As expected, Rao’s signature comic timing adds to the film’s chaotic and entertaining tone.
A Star-Studded Ensemble Cast
Alongside Rajkummar Rao and Sanya Malhotra, Toaster features a vibrant ensemble cast. These talented actors further elevate the film’s quirky narrative:
- Archana Puran Singh
- Abhishek Banerjee
- Farah Khan
- Upendra Limaye
- Vinod Rawat
- Jitendra Joshi
- Seema Pahwa
Together, this diverse cast promises a lively and unpredictable viewing experience.
Patralekhaa on Her Production Debut
Speaking about her first production venture, Patralekhaa shared her excitement:
“Stepping into production with Kampa Film has been an incredibly meaningful milestone for us. Starting this journey with Netflix makes it even more special. Toaster stood out immediately because it finds humour in the most unexpected places. Being our first film makes it even more personal. We can’t wait for audiences to enjoy this entertaining and unpredictable ride.”
Netflix Backs Fresh and Inventive Storytelling
Meanwhile, Ruchikaa Kapoor Sheikh, Director of Original Films at Netflix India, described Toaster as a refreshing addition to the platform’s content lineup.
She shared that Toaster begins with a simple miser whose life spirals into chaos. Furthermore, with Vivek Das Chaudhary making his directorial debut and Kampa Film stepping into production, the film brings fresh creative energy. In addition, Rajkummar Rao and Sanya Malhotra headline this fun entertainer packed with relatable situations, dark humour, and escalating chaos.
A Fun Ride Packed with Chaos
Ultimately, with eccentric characters, unexpected twists, and laugh-out-loud moments, Toaster promises to turn an ordinary situation into an unforgettable comedy of errors.
