Actor Akshay Kumar is gearing up for the release of his upcoming film Pad Man that talks about menstrual hygiene. B-town celebs are giving each other #PadManChallenge in which they are sharing pics with sanitary napkins. Lately, Aamir Khan accepted the challenge and the latest celeb to join the list was Alia Bhatt. The dimpled beauty posted the picture from the gym with sanitary napkin in her hands. She passed the challenge to her gym buddies.
Alia took to micro-blogging site Twitter and tweeted, “Just hanging around in the gym.. with a pad :) no biggie! Thank you @akshaykumar for the challenge.. I shall challenge my fellow gym-ers @YasminBodyImage @Sophie_Choudry & @impoornapatel #PadManChallenge.”
Pad Man is based on the life of Arunachalam Muruganantham. The man recently challenged Akshay Kumar and Twinkle Khanna. Both the stars posted the pics with sanitary napkins and then tagged three more people to complete the challenge.
Aamir accepted the challenge and wrote, “Thank you @mrsfunnybones Yes, that’s a Pad in my hand & there's nothing to be ashamed about. It's natural! Period. #PadManChallenge. Copy, Paste this & Challenge your friends to take a photo with a Pad. Here I am Challenging @SrBachchan , @iamsrk & @BeingSalmanKhan.”
Along with Akshay, Pad Man also features actresses Sonam Kapoor and Radhika Apte. Directed by R Balki, the movie is all set to hit the screens on February 9.
