When the movie first started making rounds, I remember many people made fun of the name. Everyone was wondering how a love story can be named Toilet. I was surprised to see the social message that came with this movie. Movie stars in India can reach a lot of different people through their works and this was one of the only times I had seen a big-ticket movie star attempt to create awareness about such a taboo topic.The delivery of the social message was done very effectively in this movie. Despite that, this movie is not without flaws. Pros first, the actors are really good in their respective roles. The script was mostly funny in the beginning, except for some clichéd jokes. The supporting characters also added to the movie. Especially the older family members of the lead characters. The chemistry between Akshay Kumar and Bhumi Pednekar was easy, but sometimes they seemed a little uncomfortable.The main cons for me were the unnecessary songs and the accompanying dance sequences. For a movie that primarily wants to deliver a moral, the movie has far too many songs. And the songs aren't even that good. The movie could have gone without having all the songs. The script was a little predictable at times but it was a good movie overall.

First we need to applaud the whole team for making a movie on such a subject . But sadly , this movie will be remembered for only for that.There are two themes in the movie 'Toilet ' and 'Ek Prem Katha' while the later is dominant over the former. The problem with this movie is it's love story. It is the same story which we have seen in 200 other films. A man stalks a much younger girl. She scolded him for that . Then the man gave her a short inspirational lecture . She immediately realises her mistake (which she never made ). They get married. Now we know they have to fight for some reason(Toilet in this case) . What will he do to get her back ? Go watch the film to know.Movie is somewhere lacking the focus . Is it about love or about Condition of toilets in India? The makers should have watched Life is beautiful to learn how to maintain the balance between two subjects.This movie is not terribly bad but not the masterpiece everyone claims it to be.

This film is set in rural india. Small towns have their own charisma. Akshay Kumar puts his heart and soul into it and delivers a power packed performance. His younger brother is played by Dwiyendu and he catches the dialect perfectly and delivers a beautiful performance. Bhumi Pednekar does these roles with ease.
The message in the film is very important and gets delivered to the audience while they are being entertained. Kudos to Bollywood. They have come a long way

Toilet:ek prem katha based around a true event of a village in India and shows the true nature of a part of Indian superstition....This movie is a very comedic heart felt romance drama which surrounds the true nature of those villagers and what motivated to them to do that decade after decade...Toilet tells us story of a village which does not have a single toilet and one man's love story which is at stake for that and the motivation of this superstition of not having a toilet in your own house...With all that this movie is very well directed and written.. It shows every aspect of the problem in a very rich way which will make you know and see better how it can be stopped or continued... The dialogues in this movie is as good as it can get... Acting is just awesome... The romance between two leads are very well done.. the music and songs are good and also flows with the film..There are few problems like the supporting character beside the main male lead sometimes do something which have to be motivated but seems pretty badly scripted not motivated at all... And the very ending of the movie seems rushed... Other than that this is a well directed damn good movie which needed to be shown into the as wider audiences as possible and a story needed to be told..... 7.9/10......
