The real Padman Arunachalam Muruganantham wants Dhanush to play Akshay Kumar’s role in the Tamil remake of the movie

Text Credits: Shibul Pavithran 

Akshay Kumar’s latest release PadMan is doing great business at the box office. The movie has been getting highly positive reviews by the critics received and the common audience. Although the movie is facing some issues in the Arab countries, the movie has released in all places, except Pakistan. It’s a great achievement in itself to see the success of such a daring story line. The movie is inspired from the real life story of Arunachalam Muruganandam, what started as a simple quest to ensure proper menstrual health for his wife Shanthi, turned into a revolution of sorts for rural women. His low-cost sanitary pads provided a cheap and healthy alternative to the dirty rags, sand bags and what not that were being used for ages by menstruating women, directed by R. Balki.

Akshay Kumar played Arunachalam’s role but the movie was set in Madhya Pradesh. The makers chose Madhya Pradesh as the location as they felt the need to address such a critical issue was more relevant in a backward state. The real life Padman Arunachalam was asked by many about why he let the movie to be made in Hindi and not in his own language. While there is no doubt that Akshay Kumar gave his heart and soul to the character, Arunachalam Muruganandam feels Dhanush would be the ideal choice to play him if his story ever gets made in Tamil. Speaking at a special screening of the film last week in Chennai, Muruganantham said it’d be nice if Dhanush featured in the Tamil version of his story.

Arunachalam felt that the story and its message would reach to more people only if it was made in Bollywood. Akshay Kumar is a big star and the movie naturally reached out to a wide audience.

It will be very interesting if such a remake really materializes. Like Akshay, Dhanush is also a fabulous Actor and he will try to give his best for the movie. It’ll be interesting to see if Dhanush would accept the role if he’s approached with an offer. It’d be brave of him accept the offer given that it’s a very unconventional role.

Dhanush is currently busy shooting for Maari 2, in which he returns as local rowdy – sporting John Lennon-like shades, wearing dhoti and twirled mustache; Dhanush also awaits the release of Enai Noki Paayum Thota, which marks his maiden collaboration with Gautham Vasudev Menon.
