Akshay Kumar digs up a toilet, calls for increased awareness in rural areas

Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar has not only planned a excellent promotional strategy for his upcoming film ‘Toilet: Ek Prem Katha’, but the actor will dedicate more time than he usually allots for movie promotions – because his next film is about a social cause that is close to his heart too.

The actor who is on an extraordinary box office run with 4 back-to-back hits in the form of ‘Airlift’, ‘Housefull 3’, ‘Rustom’ and ‘Jolly LLB 2’, was in Reghwan village, Khargone district of Madhya Pradesh along with Union Minister of Drinking Water and Sanitation Shri Narendra Singh Tomar on Saturday.

The actor also spoke about effective ways of decomposition of human waste, which continues to affect rural towns and villages of the country. Akshay said safe toilet technologies must be adopted and made a plea to all Indian citizens to stand up against discrimination and to take pride in installing, maintaining and cleaning their own household toilets for the health of their families.

Also starring Bhumi Pednekar, ‘Toilet: Ek Prem Katha’ is based on Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Swachch Bharat Abhiyan. The film is expected to get government support, when it hits theatres during the Independence Day weekend this year.

Earlier today, Akshay tweeted “Digging my 1st #TwoPitToilet in Khargone District of MP with Minister Narendra Singh Tomar #MakeTheChange #WasteToWealth” and attached a few pictures of him digging a two-pit toilet.

  • Face palm for blind & never learning SRK fans who are predicting end of Akki’s career due to clash (Just like SLB, Ranveer & Hrithik) ???

  • Clash with Akshay on Independence Day weekend.

    or

    Run away

    &

    Clash with Akshay+Rajni on Diwali.

    it’s all happening due to running away by the fear of Sultan.

    No terror left.

    Srk must be thinking that why the hell we announced Raees for Eid2016..?

    Over confidence of Ritesh,Farhan,Srk & Rahul Dholkia made Srk to pay price.

    Kab hai Eid…Eid kab hai…!

  • To all the jokers like @gobar @TMK @ABC barking Canadian stuff.

    Akshay has done more for India than 95% Indians. What have you done for the country?

  • but the actor will dedicate more time than he usually allots for movie promotions – because
    1)HE IS CLASHING WITH SRK
    2) his next film is about a social cause that is close to his heart too.

  • no actor can match Amitabh’s stardom. his 4 films released in single month in 1978 and all became superhits. his mass hysteria cant be matched by anyone anytime. Aamir khan & Salman is 2nd biggest crowdpuller behind big b.

  • FYI :- Akshay Kumar has been named one of the Ambassadors of SWACHH BHARAT ABHIYAAN By Govt. Of INDIA.Its not the 1st time he is taking part in a Swach Bharat Event.He has taken Part in Multiple Swach Bharat Mission Events..in Mathura,MP,Delhi.He also visited “Sulabh Sauchalay” Museum etc etc. Just cuz he has announced TEPK few Days back does not mean he is doing it only to promote It.He Started Taking Part in these event since last Year Itself.So Biased Media and Stupid Haters must know and enquire the Facts 1st before Opening their Mouth.

    Yes These Activities/Event would certainly Help his Film but More than a Film its His Personal Approach and Willingness to Support a Cause that needs to be Appreciated.

    Those Who are not Aware Must Know..Akshay Kumar charges one of the Highest Amount For Public Appearances even though if its For a Film…And By the No. Of Appearances in these Swachh Bharat Mission Events till now and in Future…He shd have got Lot of Crores but …Reality s ..He supports the Cause and is Brand Ambassador for the Cause..so is doing so For Free to spread Awareness.

    People Wake Up and Smell Coffee and learn to Appreciate other Stars other than ur Fav. Stars if they are doing Something Good rather than speaking ill about others just for Nothing.

  • I have immense regards for srk but seeing the comments of some of his retarded fans,I seriously need to bash srk from now on..

  • From now on,even though I am akki fan I will support all salman fans(although previously I was angry on salmans fans like tiger,navin,hrithik)for bashing srk!!!but these jealous srk’s fans seriously needs treatment.

  • @indicine,kindly publish my 9:41 pm n 9:44 pm comments..there is nothing offensive in any one of them!!!

  • Fake star….akshaya Kumar
    Toilet kya apni fake patriotism ke liye ye logon ki potty bhi khayega….
    Varun NE kaise Chuna lagaya jolly KE collections ko todke….

  • Srk afraid to release his films alone thats why he firstly release his film with Hrithik’s Kaabil & now with Akki’s Toilet. Srk is an afraid khan.

  • #Aamir,

    Bachche…
