Twinkle Khanna debuted as a solo producer with ‘PadMan’, which stars her husband Akshay Kumar. In her own witty element at the film’s promotions, Twinkle spoke about the project saying, “Only two things work in this country, one is cricket and the other is cinema. Cricketers have their own pads and they are busy, so we needed cinema for ‘PadMan’!” The actress-turned-producer is hopeful to change the mindset of people with this film, which explores the importance of using sanitary napkins. “We have spoken to various ministries and are going make sure that school girls and principals see ‘PadMan’, so it penetrates where it has to. We are hoping that if nothing else, at least a conversation can start where the same girls, who cannot afford sanitary pads, can tell their parents that we don’t need fairness creams rather sanitary pads.”
