Akshay Kumar’s keenly-awaited ‘Toilet: Ek Prem Katha’ has leaked, but fortunately for the film it isn’t yet out on the internet. It was choreographer turned director Remo D’Souza, who reported the leak to the makers of the film.
The filmmaker confirmed that he received a copy of the film on a USB Pen-Drive.
“I met someone who told me that he already has the movie on his pen drive. Initially, I didn’t believe him, but he seemed serious, and told me to check that for myself. When I checked the pen drive, it contained Toilet Ek Prem Katha and I was shocked”
“I first called Akshay (Kumar) sir, but since he was in London, he was unavailable. Then I called up Prerna Arora, the producer, told her about the situation, director Shree Narayan Singh came and collected the pen drive from me. They will be taking legal action against piracy, and I will talk to Akshay sir once he is back”
Akshay Kumar also released a press-statement saying “The fight against piracy is critical and it’s reassuring to see the swift action taken by the Crime Branch on the unfortunate incident involving our film Toilet – Ek Prem Katha. I would like to urge my friends, colleagues, fans and audiences to please say no to piracy. Thank you all for your support”
Prernaa Arora of KriArj Entertainment also released a statement, saying “There have been reports of my film Toilet: Ek Prem Katha having leaked online. I would like to assure my well-wishers and colleagues not to worry as everything’s under control. Someone tried to create mischief, but thanks to the Crime Branch, it’s all under control”
The industry is abuzz with talk of an insider leaking the film.
‘Toilet Ek Prem Katha’ is scheduled to release in theatres on August 11.

New marketing policy ?? I don’t know!
Sab kuch marketing nahi hota.
agr Jhms b leak ho jae tb b aisa hi bolega?
Shit just got real!
THANK U REMO SIR…
if it’s really leaked , then it should have been spread all over Internet.
but the fact is that TEPK buzz is very very low and akki is too desperate to increase the buzz through these cheap publicity !!!
JHMS will be super hit .
TEPK will be flop !!!
Ur thinking resembles the old man. U people will always remain arrogant
TEPK will be sure shot hit it will be 10 times better movie then jhms i guarantee that
Have tu apna katwapana km kar
why they need publicity when their film are the hottest film in trades in the next few months go and ask any one from natural audience which film you are waiting for JHMS or TEPK and you will got your answer only srk fans waiting for the film no one cares about nonsense rom com films
This s really very unfortunate
As a SRK FAN I request everyone pls don’t support pirecy n don’t abuse or cheer about dis things
We should feel ashamed as a movieLovers and fight with this as a unit.
@riju basu good to hea this from u . I am a die hard Akki fan . But I also respect SRK alot . But because of some foolish fans like vishal I have to say bad things. But now I will not do so .
Nd Say No To Piracy .

Please Watch only on Theaters ..

Legendary Dramabazi, because of zero buzz lol .
Who will anyway watch this copied film?
Will police and crime branch ever take action on Akshay Kumar and producers for copying the whole film without any rights?
Who told u its copied? Those who are claiming it is copy of their movie just want some publicity because not a single dog will watch their movie n no body know them also..
It will be very negative image for anyone if it is said just a trick of promotion. “Leaked but not yet come on internet” carry something fishy. God knows the rest is…
This is not a very good news if it is true (not PR work)! Let’s hope that it won’t arrive on internet.
Its not a good news if it’s a PR job either
cheap promotional strategy. if it was leaked then why its not on internet?
TEPK will be washed out by JHMS…. Mark my word
Aa gaya aaj tu pakad main……….Naam leke akshay paaji ke liye kuch bhi bolta hai tu.
They are using Udta Punjab strategy to create buzz. It hasnt been leaked anywhere. Now buzz is dying so cheap tactics.
yes the movie is leaked but in Canada
After watching JHMS trailer Akshay become very scared.
@Prashant : Are you serious or jsut Sarcasm ? What is there in JHMS trailer except finding a lost ring ? You are funny !!!!!!!
LOL!
Wow someone from Censor board has again leaked it
So they needed buzz?
At least they could cook up a believable story? Why all this cheap tactics Akshay? To keep your film in news?
This all fake news & behind its srk & Congress party
Always sir we don’t watch this movie on Internet.
But I m damm sure this is the work of crew of the film.
And I requested to you guys pls does not support crime.
This is proof how srk afraid from tepk.
publicity stunt to revive the dead buzz of the toilet
It’s shame one has to identify the source of this shit.
It wont have any effect ….very few % of indian real movie lovers download movies or maybe foreigners like us who due to nature of our job watch movies online but that is when it has officialy been released.
After Drugs and human trafficking Piracy is the 3rd most common illegal crime.
Pls say NO to Piracy! Not the kind of news to hear esp now!
@aisha ?. Good spirit and support agree with you esp as Ajay fan.
That must not have been the only copy tho..
Very unlikely a hot film like Toilet is only on 1 pen drive and that managed to return to Akki..
Either there are more copies out there, which means it will end up on the internet soon enough or this is a major PR stunt..
But the police have been included in this so I don’t think someone would actually go that far..
too bad so sad
Waiting only FOR TZH!!
Never before unseen action for the first time in Indian cinema
Cheap publicity stunt. Come’on Akshay grow up
Truth is Srk has a hand in the film getting leaked.
SRK fans are hilarious they are calling as publicity stunt because Akki got scared from JHMS trailer which is nothing but regular rotten $hitty rom com !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Next film of akshay is on privacy
