Jaya Bachchan mocks Akshay Kumar's film Toilet: Ek Prem Katha: 'Yeh koi naam hai'?

Akshay Kumar has been very conscious about doing movies that not just entertain but also have a social message. Thus, he's been a part of movies like 'Toilet: Ek Prem Katha', 'Padman' among others. While the film was a decent hit at the box office, Jaya Bachchan has now mocked the film.
The veteran actress said as she was present at the India TV Conclave, "Just look at the title of the film; I would never go to watch a film with such a name. Yeh koi naam hai? Is that really a name?" She then asked if the audience would be okay to watching a film with such a name. "Among so many people, hardly four people want to watch the film; it’s very sad. Yeh toh flop hai (It is a flop)."

For those not in the know, the film revolves around Keshav who falls in love with Jaya, played by Bhumi Pednekar. However, there is no toilet in his house and Keshav has a tough time convincing his own family and the entire village to convince about it as people have religious grounds for not having a toilet in the house.
Meanwhile, the film was a decent hit at the box office and continues to be remembered over time.
On work front, Akshay Kumar will be seen in a lot of comedies this year, after he's been a part of several movies on a social message. He was last seen in 'Skyforce' which was brimming in patriotism.
