Akshay kumar starrer Padman’s Trailer released on Friday and it has already gone viral on the net. The movie is based on India’s first ever superhero who makes sanitary pad for his wife and welfare of the society for which he was invited in America to give a motivational speech.

The two-minutes 22 seconds long trailer shows a discussion on women mensuration hygiene, a topic still considered taboo in many parts of the country.

The trailer is promising and will break all the stereotypes in the country with Akshay Kumar in central role and great comic timing, while Sonam Kapoor and Radhika Apte will play two parraral characters.

Directed by R Balki and voice over by Amitabh Bhachhan, Padman is a movie based on the life of Arunachalam Muruganantham, who brought a revolution by introducing a low-cost sanitary napkin machine for rural women, who cannot afford and also do not have access to menstrual hygiene products within the area.

He recalled an incident of how a woman sought divorce from her husband as his house did not have a toilet and urged all men that if they want to get married they must ensure a toilet at their homes.

He called for changing the mindset of people about the reluctance to have a toilet in the house where food is also cooked and pointed out the immense problems the women encounter.

Kumar recounted a dialogue from his upcoming film, “Toilet – Ek Prem Katha”, “agar biwi paas chahiye, to ghar mein sandaass (toilet) chahiye” to a loud round of applause even as dignitaries like industrialist Ratan Tata smiled.

Welcoming the actor’s suggestions, Fadnavis said he would initiate measures to implement them on a priority basis to increase the number of public toilets in the state.

As per official figures, so far, 225 cities and towns in the state have been declared ‘Open Defecation Free’ (ODF) and the entire urban Maharashtra is targeted to become ODF by October 2 as part of the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan.

Kumar also guided the assembled youth on staying fit and healthy, the need for exercising and proper diet, eating habits and other tips for a disease-free lifestyle, including eating the last meal of the day by 7 p.m.

The trial court on February 8 had issued summons to “Jolly LLB 2” producer Fox Star Studios India Private Limited, executive producer Naren Kumar, director Subhash Kapoor, Annu Kapoor along with Akshay and others asking them to appear in court in a defamation case filed by Bata shoe company.

Akshay challenged the summing order in the High Court.

The Bata Limited footwear company had filed a criminal defamation case against the team of “Jolly LLB 2” for using derogatory remarks and defamatory reference to Bata as a brand in the first official trailer of the movie.

The brand Bata has been deliberately shown in an extremely bad taste and the dialogue was intended to convey that Bata footwear is worn only by the lower strata of society and one should feel humiliated if one wears Bata footwear, the company had said in its plea.

The trial court had found prima facie offence under sections 500 (defamation) and 120B (criminal conspiracy) of Indian Penal Code, which are made out against the accused and said there were sufficient grounds to proceed against them.
