Writer, film producer and former actress Twinkle Khanna has praised her husband and National Award-winning actor Akshay Kumar’s latest film Toilet: Ek Prem Katha.
The film, which released last Thursday in the UAE, collected over Rs130 million (Dh7.43 million) on its opening day.
“So even the box office needed this Toilet eventually to break free from its constipation — Toilet: Ek Prem Katha. Hit Hit Hooray,” tweeted Khanna.

Khanna’s post hinted at the lukewarm performance of films such as Jagga Jasoos and superstar Shah Rukh Khan’s Jab Harry Met Sejal.
Toilet: Ek Prem Katha is in support of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Swachh Bharat Abhiyan to improve sanitation conditions in the country, with an emphasis on the eradication of open defecation, especially in rural areas.
The film also features Bhumi Pednekar and Anupam Kher in key roles.
