Jaya Bachchan never minces words. Most of the time, people appreciate her outspokenness. However, her recent statement calling the 2017 Akshay Kumar-starrer Toilet: Ek Prem Katha an inappropriately titled flop has not gone down well with some.
Prerna Arora responds to Jaya Bachchan’s remarks on Toilet: Ek Prem Katha; says, “I am a huge fan, but this hurts”
The film’s co-producer, Prerna Arora, is hurt by the remark. "Let me first state that I am a huge, HUGE fan of Jayaji. For me, she is the ultimate. I can watch Guddi, Uphaar, Abhimaan, and Mili anytime, anywhere, and feel happy about life. It is, therefore, very hurtful to hear her say that our film Toilet: Ek Prem Katha was a flop. Ma’am should check the box office figures. Our film earned a very handsome profit. It was one of the five biggest hits of 2017."
As for the title, Prerna reveals that it was retained after considerable debate. "We weren’t sure about the title at first. It seemed risky to have the word ‘toilet’ in the title, especially before ‘A Love Story.’ But eventually, we settled on the edgy title. As a producer, I have taken risks. What is cinema if it only sticks to the expected? Jaya Ma’am took risks with her role choices all the time. She did Doosri Sita, where she played a woman who murders her abusive husband.
Toilet: Ek Prem Katha is a film I am very proud of. I would love to show it to Jaya Ma’am if she would permit."
