Featured reviews
This is best movie to watch, this is value of money..... Good comedy and dialogue with best direction. Good acting of akshay and other co- actors. This is the film you won't feel bore during the full movie. Movie is able to bind the audience till end. Background of the film is based on God Krishna's birth place MATHURA. They used local language very well. This is fully entertain, good time pass with valued money. I recommended to you to go to watch "Toilet ek prem katha".
This was a big drawback of the movie. Not all of us are experts on the status of sanitation and toilets in Rural places.
The movie(especially the attitude of the father) didn't make much sense to me because of all of the time I assumed that there is a sewer line obviously, at the place shown in the film. I had no idea how the toilets are constructed in rural areas where there are no sewer lines. If this was somehow(may be subtly or indirectly), communicated to the viewers, many of us would have enjoyed the whole movie a lot more and it would also have been much more meaningful to us!

Definitely worth a watch in theater.a very enjoyable movie.yes it is slow paced in second half and first half is better.a film with its heart in the right place.you will not regret.late make this movie successful so that the message in it can spread.overall a good Akshay Kumar movie.
1. Must Watch. 2. The best Movie I watched after "03 idiots" & "Dangal". 3. Akshay at his best. 4. Bhoomi Pednekar is a delight for Hindi Cinema. She did more than excellent job. 5. Divyendu (Akshay's friend) is the best intake in comic role. 6. Anupam Kher is as usual at his best. 7. Sudhir Pandey did perfect justice to his role. 8. Script is well knitted & director has full control on the minutest details. 9. Each scene is well directed. 10. Akshay is redefining his own benchmark in each film. He has developed a perfect comic sense & timing to deliver dialogue. 11. Overall a genuine social cause has been presented in a perfect frame which penetrates deep into the hearts of each Indian, whether the person has a toilet in his home or not. 12. The best scene of Akshay in my opinion that moved the audience is, while the toilet he constructed for his wife, was ruthlessly broken by his own father.
OVERALL TOILET is a perfect combination of social cause & entertainment. movie deserves TAX FREE in all over India. Akshay you are already an inspiration to millions in many aspects but after this movie, billions would love you.

The movie's story has been well thought of ; the plight of villagers specially women who have to defacate in open has been portrayed in a realistic manner. The problem of not having toilets at home isn't an ordinary one. A major reason for rising number of rapes in rural areas is that women have to go out in the open fields and defacate. The toilet scams, lack of awareness and the unwillingness of people in villages to change their old notions are a real problem. The movie has some songs and romantic scenes which unnecessarily increase its time duration, the jokes aren't funny enough to make you laugh but Akshay Kumar definitely holds your interest throughout. The second half is more informative and happening. In short, you may go and watch this movie with your family or friends over the weekend.
