So far not even 1 complete negative review. Minimum 3 stars from everyone 🥳 Waiting for Masand, Chopra and Adarsh's reviews though. 😳

Propaganda of Modi Govt nothing else feel sorry for my time and money Bhakt will support this crap

So what ? @ Bold - This is extremely low comment IMO. The subject of the movie is about building a toilet for every household and extends to Swachh Bharat. How does one become BHAKT (in media sense) if one wants to support these 2 causes ? I fail to understand the strong critical emotion behind every initiative of Modi EVEN IF that is GOOD for the nation ! 😕

I predict

We should wait for word of mouth

Most critics will not give favourable reviews since subject is close to modi govt flagship scheme

And they might dismiss it as propoganda

And also Srk fans might try to sabotage reviews to show their star film in positive light

Toilet: Ek Prem Katha Movie Review

Meena Iyer, TNN, Aug 11, 2017, 10.56 AM IST

CRITIC'S RATING: 4.0/5

A VISIT TO THIS TOILET IS A MUST

STORY: Go-getter Keshav (Akshay) serenades liberal-thinker Jaya (Bhumi), a woman from his neighbouring village in Uttar Pradesh. They marry but it doesn't strike Keshav to tell her that his house doesn't have a toilet. This then becomes the grounds for Jaya to file for a divorce.

REVIEW: For most of us who take the toilets in our homes for granted, the burning issue of 58% Indians practicing open defecation could be a flush-worthy concept. But, director Shree Narayan Singh holds up a mirror to society, showing us how our superstitious villagers, lazy administration and corrupt politicians have actually converted India into the world's largest shit-pond. Women especially, are treated more insensitively than cattle!

This film is a satirical take on the age-old tradition' of seeking fields to relieve ourselves. Mercifully it steers clear of being a documentary on sanitization. Instead TEPK is a robust love-story striking a balance between entertaining and educating. Writer-duo Siddharth-Garima take us through this eye-opening journey of how we need to build toilets for our women (if not a Taj Mahal) through dramatic conflicts between the lead couple Keshav and Jaya, followed by those between Panditji (Sudhir Pandey) and his older son. The easygoing equation between two brothers, Naru (Divyendu) and Keshav is also delightful. Not to forget the protagonist's war against his entire village for a latrine. Every characteristic of rustic UP life is captured through the ubiquitous sarpanch and the naughty Kaka (Anupam Kher). The second-half borrows the template for films that address causes and allows for some lecturebaazi. A10-minute snip here would've helped the focus stay sharper.

kshay is the backbone of this satire. His inner journey as an actor pays dividends and he delivers yet another topnotch performance. Half a star in the rating is rightfully his. Bhumi is perfect in her rendition of the feisty Jaya and Divyendu is a terrific comic. The presence of veterans, Pandey and Kher, is unmissable.
The screenplay is peppered with loads of LOL moments balanced correctly with emotional outbursts. As bonus, you get a hummable soundtrack with Hans Mat Pagli, Bakheda and Gori Tu Lath Maar.

So whether you have pressing matters to attend to or not, please take a detour to this toilet. Each of us needs to raise a stink about what our countrymen do in the open.

Some negative/mixed reviews are also there...

Toilet: Ek Prem Katha might have sounded great on paper, but loses impact in its telling. The film gets way too loopy and indulgent that I actually heard someone say What crap man!' aptly summing up a film called Toilet.

2.5/5 from gulf news
