New Delhi: Actress Bhumi Pednekar, who is gearing up for the release of her forthcoming film "Toilet: Ek Prem Katha", says she hopes she keeps doing content driven movies, which are a bit of commercial success as well. Hope I keep doing content driven films: Bhumi Pednekar Bhumi Pednekar with Akshay Kumar in a still from 'Toilet: Ek Prem Katha' "I feel that today content driven films are the films that have masala. I think people don't want to watch regular run-of-the-mill generic stories anymore...I really hope that I keep doing content driven films that are a bit commercial success as well and I think that the choices that I have made have been such," Bhumi told IANS on the phone from Mumbai. ‘Shubh Mangal Saavdhan’ TEASER: Ayushmann-Bhumi introduced ‘non-hot, non-cool joda’! The 27-year-old actress says the movies now have an instant connect with the audience. "When I was young I would want to go watch a film because I wanted to be lost in that world for those many hours. I wanted to disconnect from my reality. I wanted to see a life that I hand't see but that doesn't mean that has to be a lovestory and I think that's what our films have become.  "They (movies) are so real and content driven that people have an instant connect. But even though they have a connect it's still a world that we haven't been a part of," Bhumi said. ‘Toilet: Ek Prem Katha’ makers asked to reply in copyright case! "Toilet: Ek Prem Katha", directed by Shree Narayan Singh, deals with the need of sanitisation in India and is based on Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Swachh Bharat (Clean India) campaign.
