The Film That Got The World Talking About Periods Is Now Releasing In China - Pad Man!

Bollywood megastar Akshay Kumar has had a great 2018. Not just in India, the actor has tasted success in China as well where his film Toilet: Ek Prem Katha released on June 8. His other most talked about release, the period taboo busting feature film, Pad Man, which released in India on February 9, is also making its way to cinemas in China this Friday, December 14.

In a country (India) where only 18% of women use sanitary pads due to period poverty issues and the cultural stigma surrounding menstruation, Pad Man went beyond its cult movie status to become a movement, equally entertaining and inspiring both men and women to openly have a conversation about periods.

Megastar Akshay Kumar shared the news on his Twitter account and said, “Super happy to share, Pad Man is all set to foray into the Middle Kingdom, releasing in China on 14th December, 2018!”

R Balki’s Pad Man, stars Akshay Kumar, Radhika Apte and Sonam Kapoor and is due to release in China on Friday December 14, 2018.
