We saw many admirable things that took place in the year and also many nasty things that somewhere made our head down with shame.
However, it’s better to count good things than bad ones. The one thing that is definitely deserved to be count among the admirable things is the film of Akshay Kumar. The film that was made on the health and sanitation problem special on the issue of open defecation. Yes, we are talking about Toilet: Ek Prem Katha, the film that was appreciated by millions.
