Seeing Pad Man’s promotional spree, we have come to one conclusion: behind every successful man is a strong-minded woman, and no couple stands truer to this ideology than Akshay Kumar and Twinkle Khanna.
Recently, Arunachalam Muruganantham, the real Pad Man, tagged Twinkle Khanna, Akshay Kumar, Sonam Kapoor (who plays a musician/social activist in the film) and Radhika Apte (who plays Akshay’s wife in the film) and he dared the celebs to pose with a sanitary napkin. Akshay and Twinkle immediately posted pictures of themselves holding a pad and tagged other B-Town biggies to do the same.
