The Bollywood film 'Toliet: Ek Prem Katha' or 'Toilet, A Love Story' tackles a big social problem in India, where 60% of the billion-plus population don't have access to adequate toilet facilities. The 91福利社's Tina Daheley talks to film critic Rajeev Masand in Mumbai on whether 'Toilet' can make a positive difference, and why such social issue films are increasingly popular in Bollywood.
