Some films aim to entertain, while others hope to leave an impact. Toilet: Ek Prem Katha, released in 2017, attempted the latter, tackling sanitation issues and the taboo around open defecation in rural India. Though the film earned praise from many quarters, it wasn’t universally accepted. Years later, it’s once again in the spotlight, not because of renewed acclaim or controversy around the subject matter, but due to contrasting views from two stalwarts of Indian cinema.
At a recent event, veteran actress Jaya Bachchan dismissed the film solely based on its title, stating she would never even watch it. On the other hand, Akshay Kumar, who starred in and championed the film, defended it passionately during the press conference for his upcoming movie Kesari 2.
