Arunachalam Muruganantham (played by Akshay Kumar) is an Indian villager inspired to greatness by the everyday trials of his wife and family.
Incensed that the women he loved were obliged to use old rags for menstrual hygiene, he dedicated himself to inventing a machine that would make low-cost sanitary pads.
His quest shocked polite society and challenged all kinds of taboos.
An epic story told with a broad, crowd-pleasing exuberance that is hard to resist.
