Showman Subhash Ghai APPLAUDS Pad Man Akshay Kumar, Prernaa Arora & Team, Calls The Film HONEST

Akshay Kumar, Radhika Apte and Sonam Kapoor starrer Pad Man is going strong at the box-office. The film is inspired by the life of Arunachalam Muruganantham, a social activist from Tamil Nadu who introduced low-cost sanitary napkins. Through the film, Team Pad Man also brings forth the subject of menstrual hygiene which is still considered a taboo in the Indian society.

Coming from Subhash Ghai who is the man behind films like Hero, Ram Lakhan, Karz, Trimurti and Khalnayak among others, this indeed is a huge compliment.
