Akshay Kumar- Bhumi Pednekar's recently released film, "Toilet: Ek Prem Katha" is receiving accolades from all around.

While the film is making noise for all the good reasons, there had been a very minuscule talk that was going in the opposite direction.

Reportedly, in the film, there is a segment on Akshay Kumar's father seeking a bride with an extra thumb for his son for astrological reasons. At one point Akshay and his screen-brother Divyendu Sharma stare at a hoarding of Hrithik Roshan and Sharma mumbles, "Maybe he can help us."

Forget getting miffed, the Roshans, Hrithik and Rakesh Roshan had a gala time watching the film.

During a recent event, Rakesh Roshan told the media, "I really enjoyed watching the film. I liked what it had to say. It is a praiseworthy mixture of a message and entertainment."

For those unaware, Hrithik and Akshay are neighbours. And Hrithik is very close to both Akshay and his wife Twinkle.

Says a close source, "Akshay kept Hrithik in the loop about the joke on the extra thumb. And Hrithik was okay with it. The Roshans know when to take a joke on their chin."

Toilet: Ek Prem Katha director Shree Narayan Singh admits he was nervous about the Roshans' 'thumbing down' the joke. "Yes, I was a little apprehensive. Actually after Rakeshji saw our movie he did call me. I was delighted and honoured when he congratulated me. I am so happy that he and Hrithik both liked the film and also took the joke in the right spirit. The joke was not meant to hurt anyone's feelings and I am so glad they understood that. It's a good feeling to get such positive feedback from people like Rakeshji, Hrithik and Sooraj Barjatyaj. Sorrajji texted me after seeing the film.Bahot logon ne phone aur text kiya. I am deeply touched and feeling very emotional."
