One of the most anticipated movies of recent times is Padman because of its unusual theme, the story it tells of a regular guy with a big mission, and the way it seeks to start a conversation around something no one talks of. Maybe the #PadManChallenge is just one way to generate some pre-release buzz and publicity for the movie; but it is yet another way for all of us to think of a body process as natural and normal rather than something impure to be hidden away and kept out of conversations.
Twinkle Khanna was tagged by A Muruganantham, the man and the mission on whom the movie Padman is based. According to him, lead actor and Twinkle’s husband Akshay Kumar is “the first superstar in the world to talk about menstrual hygiene and the taboos that surround it. I’m happy that he is portraying my story as #Padman.”
