Cine Actor Akshay Kumar Gifts Portable Toilet

Toilet: Ek Prem Katha star Akshay Kumar has sponsored a mobile toilet near the Juhu beach in Mumbai, months after his wife, author, and columnist Twinkle Khanna, tweeted a picture of a man defecating at another seashore in the city.

Last week, the actor sent an application to the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) offering to set up the toilet by bearing all its expenses, assistant municipal commissioner of K-ward, Prashant Gaikwad, said.

“We welcomed his initiative and installed the toilet near the Juhu beach four days ago. The actor bore all the expenses — Rs 10 lakh — for setting up the portable toilet,” he said. “The mobile toilet can be used free of cost. If anyone comes forward to maintain it, then it can be provided on a pay-and-use basis.”

In August last year, Twinkle had taken to Twitter to raise the issue of open defecation near the Versova beach in suburban Andheri. She had tweeted along with a picture of a man defecating on the Versova beach while she was out on a morning walk. Her post had come a month after the city was declared open defecation free.
