Actor Akshay Kumar, who started an open conversation on menstrual hygiene with his film PadMan, says he is proud to see how talks have transformed into a grassroots-level movement.
The actor invited all ‘Pad Heroes’ across India to join him and the Niine Movement for a nationwide running event Run4Niine on March 8, which is observed as International Women’s Day.
“It has already been more than a year since the release of ‘PadMan‘, and I am proud to see how it has evolved into a phenomenal grassroot-level movement,” Akshay said in a statement.
