Bollywood star Akshay Kumar, awaiting the release of "Pad
Man", believes good causes must be supported irrespective of one's political
aspirations.
The actor made the comment on Twitter when a user pointed
out how Akshay was making his "political associations and aspirations so
obvious" with "Pad Man", which revolves around the topic of menstrual hygiene.
"A good cause like menstrual hygiene needs to be supported regardless of the
political association or aspiration," tweeted Akshay, who highlighted the need
of eradication of open defecation in his film "Toilet: Ek Prem Katha".
Directed by R. Balki, "Pad Man" is based on the life of Arunachalam
Muruganantham, a Tamil Nadu-based social activist who revolutionised the concept
of menstrual hygiene in rural India by creating a low-cost machine to make
sanitary napkins.
"Padman" stars Akshay as Murugunathan, while Radhika
Apte plays his wife. Actor Sonam Kapoor will also be seen in a special role in
the movie which will hit the screens on February 9.
