'I liked the script'

New film

Akshay Kumar said that his film ‘Toilet: Ek Prem Katha’ has been cleared by the Central Board of Film Certification with only three cuts.

There were reports that the film certification body had asked for eight cuts but Akshay said that the reports were not correct.

“I read somewhere that we have been given eight or nine cuts. But it is not true. We have been given three verbal cuts. I was surprised to read the news about eight cuts
in the film,” the actor said at a promotional event.

The 49-year-old actor will be seen playing a husband trying to win his wife back by building a toilet for her in the house.

“The script of the film came to me. The writer narrated me the story. I made the film as I liked the script and not because someone asked me to make it,” he said.

The movie, directed by Shree Narayan Singh, also features Bhumi Pednekar and Anupam Kher.
