The Khiladi of Bollywood was last seen fighting against open defecation in 'Toilet: Ek Prem Katha' and now, he is all set to lend his voice to another social cause. The actor will portray the role of Arunachalam Muruganantham in the movie, who invented low-cost sanitary pads and fought for menstrual hygiene. Helmed by R. Balki, 'PadMan' also stars Radhika Apte in a pivotal role. The flick is slated to release on the Republic Day and will clash with Sidharth Malhotra-Manoj Bajpayee starrer 'Aiyaary' at the box office.
