He begins by stating that he doesn’t mind if people think that he is promoting his upcoming venture through the clip because a subject like this should be publicised by all means.
Akshay says, in India, half of the population does not have toilets at home. He threw light on the plight of women who have to defecate in the open since due to lack of toilets.
He further explained the woman of the house has to control their pee till its dark outside because they cannot go to fields or behind the trees in the broad daylight.
The worst part is that the families in interiors of our country do not even feel importance of building a toilet in their home. The men in the house can however do the needful wherever and whenever possible but what about those ladies, who have to control the whole day until its dark in the night. This unhealthy practice needs to be stopped.
The video concludes with the superstar urging Indian men to apologise to their women for making them go through the turmoil and begin the construction of toilets pronto.
