Anita Narre hails from Baitur District, Madhya Pradesh. She was married to a laborer Shivram on May 13, 2011. After Anita entered Shivram’s house, she got to know that there is no toilet inside the house. She even complained the same to her husband but nothing has been done. After being there for two days in her husband’s house, she left to her mother’s place. She strictly told her husband that she will only return if there will be a toilet inside the house. She didn’t want to go to the washroom in open places. Her husband has no choice rather than built a toilet inside the house.

This news has spread like a wildfire in India in 2011 and soon a Toilet based NGO Sulabh International has approached her and given a big price money for her courageous effort. She even appeared in a sanitation ad featuring Vidya Balan in the lead. She is the one who has brought a Toilet Revolution in India.

As per United Nations, Only 366 million (36.6 crores) Indian people have an access to Toilets and rest do toilet on open spaces. UN Report also has a shocking data that says 60 percent open defecation is being done by India in the world. Every year, crores of money has been spent by Government on the sanitation and cleanliness. So it is mandatory to build a toilet in home rather than going in the open spaces.

Directed by Shree Narayan Singh, the film also stars Anupam Kher and Sana Khan in key roles. The film is slated to hit the theaters on August 11, 2017.

 

Altogether, this is an inspiring story for every Indian people.
