In an otherwise dull year for Bollywood, Toilet Ek Prem Katha has emerged as a ray of hope. The Akshay Kumar starrer got off to a flying start and entered the 100-crore club on Saturday morning which was its 8th day. Toilet Ek Prem Katha held well on its second Friday too to bring in Rs 4 crore, according to a report by Bollywood Hungama. The film had earned Rs 13.1 crore on day 1 which by no means was a great start but a good word of mouth helped Toilet Ek Prem Katha to pick up in last few days. While, the movie has just hit the theatres, Akshay Kumar’s wife Twinkle Khanna aka miss funny bones took to Twitter on Saturday morning to reveal the first scene of second part of Toilet Ek Prem Katha.
In case you are surprised, well, Twinkle shared an image of a man defecating in open at one of the beaches in Mumbai. With this image, she shared a caption saying this could be the first scene of Toilet Ek Prem Katha part 2. “Good morning and I guess here is the first scene of Toilet Ek Prem Katha part 2 #WhenYourWalkGoesDownTheToilet,” she wrote. Twitterati reacted positively to the post and admitted that open defecation is a problem that needs to be addressed.
Here are top Twitter reactions:

The government has created a lot of toilets in the school for the girls, but failed to create toilets in the public area.

Didi do you think there are enough toilets? I just went to Himachal from New Delhi and I didn’t see a single toilet without a Dhaba.

Uhmmm ok, building toilets is not the responsibility of government. It can make it punishable to not build toilets though.

#ToiletEkPremKatha should be made tax free & sponsored by #SwacchBharat to be aired in underprivileged states where this issue is rampant.

The biggest prob with community/public toilets is maintenance. A model dev by Samagra in Pune for such toilets is working wonders.

Leaving aside Baahubali 2 [Hindi] (which was a dubbed release) and Tubelight (which was a disaster), it is exactly five months after Badrinath Ki Dulhania that a Hindi film has managed to go past the Rs. 100 crore mark and emerge as a good success. This is also Akshay Kumar’s 5th film to earn over Rs 100 crore in last two years.
