Twinkle Khanna opens up about Akshay Kumar starrer PadMan exclusively!

The shooting of Akshay Kumar and Radhika Apte’s upcoming film PadMan is currently on. The film is Twinkle Khanna’s first production under her banner Mrs Funnybones Movies. It deals with the sensitive and shamed subject of Menstruation. Actress Sonam Kapoor is also a part of this project.

The story is inspired by Arunachalam Muruganantham who found a way to make cheap, affordable sanitary napkins for women in his village. Written and directed by R. Balki, it is based on a chapter from Twinkle Khanna’s book ‘The Legend Of Lakshmi Prasad’.

In a recent media interaction, Twinkle spoke about the film and said, “It (shoot) is going very well. Mr Muruganantham was also there. It’s a wonderful project. It will bring awareness about something which has so far been cloaked and shamed, and I am very happy to be a part of the film.”
