Keshav and Jaya are from two villages near Mathura where at least 80% of households have no access to lavatories. Conflict comes knocking on the first day of their marriage, when Jaya discovers that Keshav's home has no toilet and she leaves. Distraught and desperate, Keshav embarks on a mission to win back his love by battling against the age-old traditions, mindset, and value system of his country.

Toilet is a film about the tussle against deeply rooted superstitions in our mind in the name of culture and religion. On the surface, it is a film about improving public sanitation and emphasis on making toilet in every house to counter the problem of Open defecation.But on a closer look, it sounds more like an struggle between aged and current conception. It is and assault against bygone notions which are deposited in our mind in the name of tradition and religion.Religion never harms anybody, what harms most is the delusional distortion of religion in the name of custom and heritage. And this film tries to oppose the very same distorted notions.A very noble endeavor by the director for picking such a relevant and contemporary issue. But only picking a good idea doesn't translates into a good movie.The first and the foremost issue with the film is its feeble screenplay. It drags too much. The film could have easily been edited by up to an hour. The plot had potential but is lost in the haywire storytelling and never-ending second half. The screenplay of the film would have been made into a good 30-35 minutes short film but if you are making a movie you need to have something much more than that. Aside from screenplay and editing, muddled storytelling is an another drawback. Director drags the film by putting songs and overly sentimental monologues and scenes at regular intervals but it clearly encumbers the flow of narrative. Direction is average at best. Cinematography is good. Music is complete waste and is only there to increase the length of film.Acting is good. Sudhir Pandey went too over the top however considering the demand of the script, it could be forgiven. Akshay Kumar is natural. Bhumi Pednekar was brilliant and nailed her role aptly. The performance which stood out the most was of Divyendu Sharma's as the younger brother of Akshay Kumar.So in the end it's just that the film clearly had the potential of being a powerful social satire but was lost somewhere among weak writing, overly long run-time and bland direction. It could have been much more but is sadly just a promulgation of Prime minister's Clean India Initiative. A one time watch...

Toilet can be said to be a well spinned entertainment drama with a damn good message. It can be a sad reality in the typical Indian states. Movie is well acted by Akshay, Bhumi and Sudhir, all the characters helps the movie to conclude with their performances. Divyendu is good with his comic timing and performance. The music of the film is below average yet the film can be counted into Akshay's masala movie range. Good to watch movie.

Everything is superb in this movie. Watching such an entertaining movie after a looooong time. Story, dialogues, acting, songs... all very too good. I don't write movie reviews but after watching such a nice movie, wanted people not to miss it :) Akshay has come out really outstanding... performances by other fellow actors are equally good...Songs have been written, composed and sung very well... Seems like our legend Sonu Nigam is back with this movie...His voice really suits Akshay Kumar... For me it's 10 on 10 flick...
