It’s astounding to witness the tenacity of strides that young boys and girls in India are taking for the betterment of the country. Every now and then, a young someone comes around to set a benchmark for the rest of us.
This time, it’s a 14-year-old girl.
Prathyaksha, who played the role of a 15-year-old girl fought in the movie to build a toilet at home. Unfortunately, she’s running the same crusade in real life.
In a bid to make her dream come true, Prathyaksha has proposed to give away her movie fee to build more lavatories in Mallamma’s village. Her initiative has caught the attention of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who even mentioned her in his Mann Ki Baat program last year.
In her movie, Prathyaksha plays Mallamma in Kannada film Sandaas (Latrine), for which she will be paid an amount of Rs 1 lakh. In the movie, she goes on a 3-day fast to convince her family to have built a toilet in the house.
“I’m not just inspired by Mallamma’s efforts but am determined to do something concrete for the cause. I’ll dedicate my fee to build toilets in Mallamma’s village,” said Prathyaksha, a theatre artiste since childhood, reports TOI.

Thanks to her initiative that the film crew now plans to build a minimum of 100 toilets in the village.
