Jaya Bachchan is one veteran actress who always makes it to the headlines because of her controversial statements. Recently, she was a part of India TV's She Conclave, and while talking about propaganda films or movies that are supporting government's social issues, the 76-year-old took a dig at Akshay Kumar's film Toilet Ek Prem Katha.

When she was asked about the movies that are supporting the campaign of ruling party, Bachchan quickly said, "Propaganda film!" When further asked about movies based social issues supported by government like Akshay Kumar's Toilet Ek Prem Katha, the veteran actress said, "Abhi aap naam bhi dekhiye, main aise picture khud kabhi naa dekhne jao. Toilet Ek Prem Katha, yeh koi naam hai? Yeh koi title hai? (Look at the name of the film, I would never go to watch such movies. Toilet Ek Prem Katha, is this even a title?)."

She asked the audience whether who will go and watch a movie which has a title like this, when only a few people raised their hands, Bachchan said, "Itne log mein chaar log haath utha rahe hai, very sad. Picture flop hai. (In so many people, only four have raised their hands, very sad. Movie is a flop)."

Akshay Kumar fans are not happy with Jaya Bachchan's statement and they are slamming her on social media. A netizen wrote, "#JayaBachchan really needs A HELP! HER sickness growing, if arrogance has face its she. She never heard #ToiletEKPremKatha is movie, think it’s good cause movie. Her sickness at its peak."

Another X user wrote, "@SrBachchan Aunty forgot about @juniorbachchan in her Backyard Woh kitna SUCCESS hea?? #jayabachchan #shameless Aunty..#Ego #Arrogance Itna KYU?"

Meanwhile, Toilet Ek Prem Katha, which was release in 2017, was a super hit at the box office. The film had minted Rs. 134.42 crore.
