Sharing this picture on social media, Akshay wrote, “Talking periods and breaking taboos at the Lokmat event today. #PadManInPune gets a crazy welcome!”

Akshay faces a battle on his hands as the film clashes with ‘Padmaavat’, but massive turnout proves the buzz of ‘Pad Man’ is also strong.

At Symbiosis University, the actor also spoke on the topic of ‘Cinema as a medium of Social Consciousness and Cultural Transformation’, something which his film ‘Pad Man’ is doing by propagating the importance of menstrual hygiene.

The superstar also met his fan club Puneri Akkians from the city, who were dressed in T-shirts bearing his photograph

After the event, the superstar also visited a mall, where he was greeted by a flood of fans, with most of them taking out their phones to capture the moment.

He also wrote on social media, “And it's a wrap for #PadManInPune! Thank you Seasons Mall, Pune you guys were amazing .”
