Box Office Occupancy Report: Akshay Kumar's Toilet- Ek Prem Katha opens on an average note
Akshay Kumar's Toilet- Ek Prem Katha witnesses an average box office occupancy in the morning shows.
Akshay Kumar and Bhumi Pednekar's Toilet- Ek Prem Katha focuses on eradicating the practice of open defecation in the country. It's a step in order to help Prime Minister Narendra Modi's pet project Swachh Bharat Abhiyan. Going by the reviews, Akshay and Bhumi's film has been appreciated for the content and the acting by the lead cast.
According to a trade site, the film has had a fair opening of around 20-25% and has got better collections outside the metropolitan cities. It'll be interesting to see how the film fares on its opening day and how weekend works for Toliet- Ek Prem Katha.
Producer Prernaa Arora, while talking to us, said, "Toilet: Ek Prem Katha is completely an entertainment film. It is a very commercial film with a social message. Akshay Kumar comes from a school where he makes films which are also entertaining to the audience. He does not want to bore the audience, firstly. We have learned that from him that yes, commercial works. It's very important because people are not looking at documentaries. We have lots of documentaries and art to really appreciate in our country. We can go to the theatres and there are other mediums to watch and appreciate that kind of work. But when you watch your visually Hindi films, you need that masala and entertainment for sure."
She added, "So Toilet: Ek Prem Katha is that. It's commercial and it is 100 percent an entertaining film. It's a comedy and satire with a social message but it's talking about something which is a world power today. It's talking about an important subject which has not been exploited and is the truth of our country where we all know that we don't have toilets. I sometimes wonder, that we have reached the moon and we have climbed Mount Everest but we don't really have toilets in our own country."
We also got in touch with the trade experts and they also said that they are heavily banking on the film as the content is what is making the films work at the box office.
