More about Pad Man 

Pad Man was inspired by the life of social activist Arunachalam Muruganantham. The film revolves around a man who sets out to create a sanitary pad machine in order to provide inexpensive sanitary pads to the women of rural India upon realizing the extent to which they are affected by their mensuration cycles. The film is aimed at reducing the stigma around menstruation while everyone finds it hard to talk about it.

Sonam Kapoor played the role of Pari Walia in the film. She is the eventual love-interest, to Muruganantham’s character in the film. While Muruganantham belongs to the village, Pari hails from the city. The movie was a major critical and moderate commercial success. It received an award for Best Film on Other Social Issues at the 66th National Films Award. IMDb rates Pad Man 7.9 out of 10.
