Speaking to a major entertainment portal Goswami Ghanshyam
Raj Bhatt, spokeswoman for Braj Acharya Peeth said they also have objections to
the fact that a film with the word "toilet" in its title is being
filmed in his district, which has a religious history. He said the film
represents a marriage between a boy and a girl from the villages of Nandgaon
and Barsana, which is against tradition since marriages between these villages
are not held, since one represents the home of Lord Krishna and the other of
Radha.
He said that people of all religions who reside in these two
villages follow this ancient tradition. He said they would meet with the
district magistrate and urge him to stop filming the film.
'WC - Ek Prem Katha' is being directed by director Shree
Narayan Singh and is scheduled to launch sometime in 2017.
