      Toilet: A Love Story--Indian Films Based on True Events

      Reasons for watching the movie: I want to see what Indian films made by directors other than Aamir Khan are like, and I also want to see how Indians themselves use movies to show the world the problem of toilets in their own countries. After watching.

      The real problems reflected in the 'toilet hero' of Indian feminism

      The toilet problem in the Indian movie "Toilet Hero" is not only a major task in India, but also in China. Even in China's developed cities, the problem of public toilets is still a shortcoming in the field of urban construction.

      The Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development of China stipulates that there must be a public toilet 300 meters to 500 meters in the bustling areas of the city; in other locations, it is necessary to ensure that there is a public toilet between 750...

      Low profile version of Indian partner

      My first impression of the toilet hero is: too much like an Indian partner.

      Both films use a relatively detailed and somewhat embarrassing topic as a breakthrough, opening up the contradictions in India on issues such as equality between men and women, cultural beliefs and modernization, etc., and then start the plot. However, from the rhythm of the plot, the mashup of elements, and the logic and rationality of the plot deduction, including the choice and choice of love, the level of...

      toilet hero

      Watching this movie is probably about the efforts made by Indian women to get a toilet, all kinds of efforts, although some people's minds have been imprisoned, they feel that it will be fine without a toilet, it is quite normal, but The heroine in this film is still working hard, fighting for herself, and finally winning the toilet, becoming a real toilet hero. Anyway, the meaning of this film is positive and it is worth watching. It is similar to the routine of Indian movies, and...

      About Indian Cinema

      Watching Indian movies starts with watching Aamir Khan. Also because Aamir Khan likes Indian movies. Indian warm-hearted films are very worth watching. There are not too many artificial decorations in the films I have seen, so I will show you the straightforward, refreshing and refreshing ones. There is such a phenomenon in the society. Not too short, not too fat, not too thin, just such a small person, he is a member of the world, and he is not just a member of the world. Of course,...

      1. Don't expect others to fight for your rights. When you fight, they should be grateful if they can cheer for you. 2. It is easy to correct intellectual and technical mistakes, but it is too difficult to change the stubborn diseases in concepts and thoughts. 3. You can't appreciate the hardships without wearing those shoes. The so-called "empathy" is just a word of comfort. 4. If you don't change yourself, the great changes outside don't mean much to...

      The uncle of the heroine is a returnee from Japan. Japan is a country where even the sound of peeing must be covered with sound effects. Comparing the Indians who refuse to cover the toilet, I can only sigh that the cultural difference is huge. The enemy this time is not the government, but backward ideas and deeply ingrained bad habits. It hurts that the male protagonist cries that you have destroyed his "Taj...

    Evaluation action

    The film shows the big from the small, so that more and more people realize the "toilet problem" and begin to think about the living conditions of Indian women (Beijing Youth Online Review)  . The film is different from the traditional Bollywood romance films, the film's love story revolves around "a toilet". It has made the Indian people aware of the importance of the "toilet" issue, and the government has also started to change the...
