Vikram Malhotra, Founder and Chief Executive Officer at Abundantia Entertainment and Friday Filmworks’ Producers Shital Bhatia and Neeraj Pandey have join hands for a film – titled ‘Toilet — Ek Prem Katha’.
Now, this would surely bring a smile to your face, but when you delve into the plot, the curiosity only increases. The film is set against the backdrop of menace of open defecation in India.
The story revolves around Indian women, who are forced to defecate in open because of lack of proper toilet facilities in India.
And the latest UNICEF reports suggest that more and more women still have to relieve themselves in the open leading to overall hygienic concerns, crime against women and health issues.
The issue is so grave that our honorable Prime Minister Narendra Modi focused on the same in his first address to the nation on Independence Day – ‘Swachh Bharat Abhiyaan’.
