Akshay Kumar and Bhumi Pednekar’s much-awaited film Toilet: Ek Prem Katha has finally hit the theaters today.
The film has released in 3000 screens in India and 590 screens in overseas. In the morning shows, the film witnessed an occupancy of 30%-35% at the box office.
The star power of Akshay Kumar should definitely help the film to score a huge opening weekend. Though the opening is lesser than Akshay’s previous films Rustom and Housefull 3, the trend seems in the same range of Airlift. The biggest advantage for the film is a big holiday for Independence Day on Tuesday.
The film revolves around a small town where a newly wed couple as in Akshay and Bhumi Pednekar – and how the lack of a proper toilet at home brings in a divide between them. It’s the ordinary man’s extraordinary journey in bringing awareness and solution to his town about the proper use and need of sanitation that the film will talk about. The film’s trailer is a mix of entertainment & social values.
