Padman new poster: Akshay Kumar, Radhika Apte look like a happy couple!
`Padman` is hitting the screens on January 26, 2018.
New Delhi: The National Award winning actor Akshay Kumar has some great films lined-up for the coming year. He will be seen in not one or two but three big movies such as 'Gold', 'Padman' and '2.0'.
Akki's 'Padman' is based on the real-life incident of Arunachalam Muruganantham—the man whose initiative to invent low-cost sanitary pad making machines in rural India helped not only his wife but other women in his village to lead a hygienic life.
The superstar took to Twitter and shared the latest poster of the film with a caption hinting at the trailer release. It has Akshay and Radhika Apte posing a happy couple.
The film will be produced by Akki's better half Twinkle Khanna, making it her maiden production venture and will be helmed by R Balki. Sonam Kapoor and Radhika Apte will play important roles in the film.
Interestingly, Twinkle had mentioned about the story of 'Padman' aka Arunachalam in the final short story titled ‘The Sanitary Man from A Sacred Land’ in her second novel ‘The Legend of Lakshmi Prasad’.
'Padman' is hitting the screens on January 26, 2018.
