And you thought you were in trouble for leaving the seat up, this guy has to put a toilet in his house in order to win back his bride, who refuses to use the traditional facilities in his Indian village, the great outdoors.
In theaters in time for India’s Independence Day, “Toilet: Ek Prem Katha” is billed as a romantic comedy with a serious social message- stop shatting in the outdoors for Ganesha’s sake.
One paragraph plot summary Here
Sounds like a shitty movie…
Soon this will be behind us.
“Indian village Village Toilet”
Sounds like a great car freshener sent.
BOLLYWOOD FOREVER!!!
Hollywood. Must. Die.
I’ll be on the lookout for this one but, in the meanwhile, try to see these, if you can get your hands on a copy (FAMILY FRIENDLY unless otherwise indicated):
Sultan
3 Idiots (brilliant engineers with sometimes bad language)
Bride and Prejudice
Chak De!
Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam
I Have Found It
Kuch Naa Kaho
Main Krishna Hoon (kids’ film!)
Ram-Leela (an Indian Romeo & Juliet)
Why doesn’t she just use the one at the call center?…
Oh yes. forgot:
Chennai Express (some bad language)
Prem Ratan Dhan Payo
I was looking forward to seeing Dunkirk when it comes out, but this may be trumping that choice.
The property I’m living on had an outdoor toilet back in the day.
“I was looking forward to seeing Dunkirk when it comes out, but this may be trumping that choice.”
Coincidentally, the English title of the Toilet movie is “Dumpderp”. Gotta look closely at the marquee when you go in.
Where is Bono on this issue?
And willysgoatgruff for the win!
Why do I suddenly have the urge to go to White Castle?
I believe Bob Marley released that song back in the early 70’s
I am reminded of a program, don’t remember the title, it was hilarious.
Centered around getting available women North to Alaska with marriage on their minds.
They loved the summertime scenery, the abundance of wild life, the can do attitude, the virile men.
When it was disclosed they had to use an outdoor toilet in the winter, that was it.
Even the places with indoor facilities, they were frozen for a good part of the winter.
YUGE deal breaker, I doubt even Donald could talk them into it.
when you got to go you got to go-if your in the wood’s dig a hole…
“I believe Bob Marley released that song back in the early 70’s”
Do you remember,
When we used to squat,
in the Government Yard’s trench, mon…
And I wondered why you can’t drink the water in India. Lots of floaters…
One toilet down.
1.25 billion to go.
Why, what’s wrong with community toilets in India?

The reality is that the Mrs. will be able to sit enthroned, but her bio-solids will gently drop and float in the exposed concrete channel to the gutter outside her house. If that makes her happy, so be it, they still don’t use toilet paper anyway.
100% better than the crap coming out of Hollywood. I’ll watch for the humor and for Akshay Kumar.
I’m with Czar on this one. Bollywood makes some great movies and ‘Sultan’ is a good one to see. Even at 50 yrs Salman Khan is worth watching. There’s acting and not just a series of special effects with some Leo DiCaprio type posing and posturing..
Bajrangi Bhaijaan is another for the list. Also anything with Hrithik Roshan.
On the serious side PM Modi has a campaign to place toilets in every Indian village no matter how remote.
Almost forgot the Singham movies. The Indian Chuck Norris with a love story thrown in. Lots of trailers on youtube.
Ever see Slumlord Millionaire? Ewwwwwwwwww!!!
Having had to use “squatty potties” in Japan and elsewhere in the far east, I totally sympathise with her. In Japan there were long lines for the western toilets..even the natives didn’t want their traditional potties.
My wife is from a poor, top of the mountain, in the jungle, rugged terrain village that had ONE water faucet in the entire village. South
of Cebu. Shit holes were standard and the productive put a shack around
them for privacy.
She’s the cleanest woman I’ve ever met.
Thank the good lord I’m fortunate!! 🙂
