Anupam Kher on why films like Toilet: Ek Prem Katha are the need of the hour

Mumbai, Aug 4 (IBNS): Veteran actor Anupam Kher plays a fundamental role in Akshay Kumar’s upcoming film Toilet: Ek Prem Katha.

The actor believes that a film like this is the need of the hour and completely relates to it.

Kher was brought up in a family where all the members would have to use one toilet which was in an extremely poor condition. To this the actor said, “I have lived that life and I completely relate to the film. It is the need of the hour. It is extremely unfortunate that we live in the 21st century and with so much modernization our country still hasn’t managed to give all of its citizens a proper place to urinate and defecate.”

“What I really like about the film is that it is a romantic comedy that gives out such a relevant social message. There are very few film makers who can take a subject like this and make it an entertainer with romance and comedy,” Kher added.

Well we’re sure Anupam Kher will impress us as always with his role in Toilet: Ek Prem Katha.

Produced by Viacom 18 Motion Pictures, KriArj Entertainment, Neeraj Pandey, Plan C Studios, Cape of Good Films LLP and Abundantia Entertainment, Toilet: Ek Prem Katha stars Akshay Kumar and Bhumi Pednekar. Directed by Shree Narayan Singh, the film will release in cinemas on Aug 11.
