PadMan challenge: Aamir Khan, Alia Bhatt and Shabana Azmi too were seen taking the challenge of Akshay Kumar starrer ahead.
Akshay Kumar, Radhika Apte and Sonam Kapoor starrer PadMan is one of the most awaited Bollywood films of the year. While we know that Akshay willingly shifted the release date of PadMan from January 26 to February 9 for Padmaavat, the lead actor of the Sanjay Leela Bhansali film Deepika Padukone has now come forward to show her support for PadMan. While we have already seen a few celebrities posing with a sanitary pad to promote R Balki’s social drama, Deepika too shared a post.
“Thank you for tagging me @akshaykumar ! Yes, that’s a Pad in my hand & there’s nothing to be ashamed about…It’s natural! Period. #PadManChallenge,” wrote Padmaavat star Deepika while she shared a Boomerang video. Not only Deepika but Aditi Rao Hydari too was seen lending her support to the film.
Anil Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao who have started to work on their next film together, Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga, too shared a video as they took the PadMan challenge. “#PadManChallenge with the most wonderful @AnilKapoor. @akshaykumar @sonamakapoor @radhika_apte. It’s Natural. Period. Here we go @ayushmannk & @aditiraohydari,” wrote Rajkummar Rao sharing the same.
Other actors like Arjun Kapoor, Ayushmann Khurrana, Swara Bhaskar, Sophia Choudry, Dia Mirza too accepted the PadMan Challenge.
The inspiration behind PadMan, Arunachalam Muruganantham, a social entrepreneur who invented the machine for manufacturing low-cost sanitary pads, initiated a #PadManchallenge on social media. In the challenge, one has to click a photo with a sanitary pad and share it on social media and tag other people who you want to take up the challenge next.
