Although the family is shamed by society for having sex, their son ultimately stands up for them and matures as a person.

  1. Toilet: Ek Prem Katha

The main theme of the movie is the importance of having toilets at home. In the movie, a newlywed bride walks into her husband’s house and quickly realizes there isn’t an indoor toilet, and that the community as a whole is similarly lacking in this regard. To just ‘go’ once every day, women in the village must plan and prepare well before morning. Toilet: Ek Prem Katha emphasizes how risky it is for individuals to use the restroom in open spaces, in the heat, the rain, or the cold, with insects and snakes nearby, and the difficulties they encounter as a result of age-old beliefs.
