It looks like the film fraternity cannot wait for Shree Narayan Singh's Toilet:Ek Prem Katha. The Akshay Kumar-Bhumi Pednekar starrer is set to be released on 11 August, and has got several major stars backing it. From Karan Johar to Sidharth Malhotra and Varun Dhawan, members of the film industry have put out videos requesting fans to watch the film on its release day.
Karan Johar teamed up with his protege, Alia Bhatt, on a cute skit built on Alia Bhatt's self-deprecating humour. He finds Bhatt locked in the toilet, and upon being questioned, she reasons "Tumne to kaha tha Toilet dekh aao." (You told me to go and watch Toilet?) It is then that they reveal the true intention of the video, requesting fans to go watch the film on 11 August.
While Kumar recently complained that the industry is yet to recognise him, this outpouring of wishes will offer him some comfort.
