The makers of R Balki’s Pad Man, which stars Akshay Kumar in the titular role, have come up with an interesting challenge to promote the film and reduce the hesitation in discussing menstruation and sanitary pads.
The first actor to take the challenge was superstar Aamir Khan. The Dangal (2016) actor proudly held a sanitary pad and encouraged his followers to talk freely about it.
He in turn has challenged fellow stars Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan.
In a tweet, Aamir Khan said, “Yes, that’s a pad in my hand and there is nothing to be ashamed about. It's natural! Period.”
Harsh Goenka, chairman of RPG Enterprises, has also taken the challenge.
